(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Trans-Atlantic submarine cable provider Hibernia Atlantic (www.hiberniaatlantic.com) announced on Thursday it has selected dark fiber optic networks provider Sunesys (www.sunesys.com) to further expand its global financial network into its 1400 Federal data center in Carteret, New Jersey.

The announcement comes on the heels of the company’s expansion into  two new data centers in Secaucus, New Jersey, as well as into Equinix’s LD4 London Slough International Business Exchange data center in May.

As one of Hibernia’s five New York metro dark fiber partners, Sunesys helps the company to deliver low latency, redundant capacity to financial firms. 

The expansion over dark fiber into 1400 Federal further accelerates Hibernia Atlantic’s connectivity to local and global banks and exchanges within the area. 

The move is part of Hibernia Atlantic’s overall strategy to partner with dark fiber providers in an effort to deliver reliable connectivity to financial customers in New York metro and elsewhere.

The connectivity bypasses major congestion points located within major metro city centers, providing a highly desired route for financial exchange traffic from Chicago to Secaucus and across the Atlantic Ocean to Slough, UK.

Hibernia’s GFN has five dark fiber providers across New York metro, 14 network points of presence in this region, and 75 PoPs globally, making it one of the most resilient, reliable and fastest networks serving the financial community in the metropolitan area.

This latest connection into 1400 Federal offers financial customers a full range of scalable services, including colocation, interconnection, support and monitoring.

“Sunesys is known for helping businesses move rapidly ahead by creating customized, converged dark fiber network solutions that encompass multiple locations and data centers, and by controlling the potentially crippling costs of escalating technology demands,” says Eric Gutshall, EVP of sales and marketing for Hibernia Atlantic. “Our partnership with Sunesys increases our access into key financial centers like 1400 Federal, and further provides ‘security through diversity’ to financial customers.”
