Stockholm & Denver (June 14, 2021) – Telia Carrier today announced that it has expanded deployments with CoreSite Realty Corporation (NYSE: COR), establishing two new points-of-presence (PoPs) at CoreSite’s Secaucus, New Jersey (NY2) and Boston, Massachusetts (BO1) data centers. NY2 and BO1 provide enterprise customers highly scalable, low-latency connectivity to Telia Carrier's top ranked global IP network (AS1299), connecting multiple facilities across the country, and enabling customers to establish connectivity on their path to digital transformation.
Telia Carrier selected CoreSite’s enterprise-grade facility in Secaucus, New Jersey, to serve customer requirements on the campus and enhance connectivity to an ecosystem of over 220 organizations — including cloud, application, media and IT service providers with high-density, high-growth deployments. NY2 also connects to major financial exchanges and provides seamless interconnection with CoreSite’s Manhattan facility, NY1.
CoreSite’s facility in Boston, Massachusetts was selected to provide additional choice to enhance the robust network interconnection, locally and internationally, with seamless access to multiple diverse subsea cables to Europe. This network expansion enables diverse connectivity to Telia Carrier providing the low latency, scalability and industry-leading uptime enterprises have come to expect.
“Secaucus and Boston are exciting markets representing leading medical, high tech and gaming use cases. The new Telia Carrier PoPs connect directly to our campus ecosystem and are a great option for customers who are looking to reduce latency and improve performance while also increasing reliability, capacity and global reach,” said Ben Green, Vice President of Sales and Network at CoreSite. “Building on our long-standing relationship with Telia Carrier, we can offer customers access to the company’s number one ranked internet backbone network across our highly connected data center footprint which offers the ideal location to support hybrid IT strategies with native on-ramps to all the major cloud providers.”
CoreSite’s New York area data center campus has over 200,000 operating data center square feet, which is highly scalable, disaster resistant space providing low latency connectivity to major financial exchanges in less than 0.2 milliseconds.
