Metro Ethernet: Sidera Network Offers High-Speed Connectivity to Colt Technology Services

By Rajani Baburajan, TMCnet Contributor


Sidera Network, a metro Ethernet provider of fiber optic-based network solutions, will offer high-speed connectivity to Colt, an information delivery platform in Europe.

The high-speed connectivity enables the provider to access the U.S. market with direct, ultra low-latency connectivity to the New York and Chicago metropolitan areas.

Currently, Colt's managed network covers more of Europe than any other provider. Colt is offering direct-line connectivity to more than 17,000 buildings in 38 major European cities.

“We've had presence in the U.S. market for a number of years now, with a strong focus on addressing growing customer demand for connectivity in leading metro areas such as Chicago, Boston, Newark and New York,” said Jaap Zuiderveld, vice president of Direct Sales, Enterprise Services at Colt Technology Services, in a statement.


Sidera’s ultra low-latency connectivity and unique routes enable the company to offer complete, end-to-end solution with the reliability and scalability our clients demand, according to Zuiderveld.

Colt selected Sidera Network to access the U.S. market because of its ultra low-latency connectivity and unique routes. The team's dedication to working with its customers to achieve optimal business performance, supported by Service Level Agreements also influenced the decision to select Sidera Network.

“This solution and our capabilities are a perfect fit for Colt's needs in the U.S. market, as our network is uniquely designed for the financial services industry,” said Mike Sicoli, CEO of Sidera Networks (News - Alert).

“Moving forward, we will also be seeking ways to leverage Colt's network to allow our customers to reach key metro areas throughout Europe. This business relationship is a win-win for both organizations,” Sicoli added.

Colt is Europe's information delivery platform. It enables its customers to deliver, share, process and store their vital business information. Colt operates a 21-country, 33,000km network that includes metropolitan area networks in 38 major European cities with direct fiber connections into 17,000 buildings and 19 Colt data centers.
