Global Capacity announced that the company has installed a new Point of Presence (PoP) facility at Seattle in the SE2 data center owned by Equinix (News - Alert). The addition of the new PoP extends an additional connectivity point for One Marketplace, which will enable the platform to be accessed from across Pacific Northwest while also opening up an international gateway for connectivity to Asia and Canada.

In a release, Ben Edmond, Chief Revenue Officer for Global Capacity (News - Alert), said “Customer demand for competitively priced network connectivity and lower latency has fueled Global Capacity’s Pacific Northwest expansion. With the new hub in Seattle, all major West Coast business centers are within 10ms from a One Marketplace PoP.”

One Marketplace allows bi-directional connectivity between network sellers and buyers allowing both the parties to cater to the growing supply and demand by expanding the coverage of network services. The platform offers an ideal solution to meet network transmission requirements for storage, voice and data applications with scalability ranging from 1.5 Mbps to 10 Gbps.

The newly added PoP provides enterprise customers as well as service providers a host of connectivity services including access to more than 250 network and cloud service providers. The users will also gain access to opportunities provided by the Westin Building Exchange, Seattle Internet Exchange, Equinix Internet Exchange and Ethernet Exchanges. The users can also explore connectivity to Asian markets through Global Capacity’s transoceanic cable landings and to Canadian markets using a US based PoP.

One Marketplace brings transparency to business transactions for pricing and ordering network services with real-time design capabilities. The platform simplifies ordering and deployment of network services while also tracking the performance of each of the circuits purchased through this platform through a single service level agreement.

Global Capacity is engaged in providing network connectivity related services in a marketplace set-up offering solutions that ensure 100 percent network uptime. The flagship platform developed by the company, One Marketplace is termed as an ideal solution to buying and selling of network services to offer mobility, cloud and globalization aspects to enterprise customers as well as network service providers.
