International Connectivity with the Flexential Interconnection Platform

All industries are embracing an increasingly digital global marketplace which, more often than not, is enabled by cloud-based applications and platforms. Just as U.S. organizations, including technology, manufacturing, healthcare, research and educational institutions, continue to expand their interests in emerging, high-growth APAC markets, their global counterparts look to exploit similar opportunities in the U.S.

Likewise, the amount of data traveling from the U.S. to South America is growing at a 30% CAGR due to broadband and bandwidth-heavy application adoption as well as a broader shift of businesses to the cloud. In parallel, many legacy U.S. - South American network systems are nearing end-of-life and need replacement.

Flexential’s Portland-Hillsboro 2 data center is the North American landing point for two new subsea fiber cable systems. Combined, the New Cross Pacific and Hawaiki submarine cable networks provide faster data connections and expanded network access to meet mounting requirements for low-latency connectivity to and from Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

Similarly, as part of the Flexential Interconnection Platform, Seaborn Networks’ transoceanic subsea cable, Seabras 1, provides low latency, high-speed, 72-terabits-per-second seamless connection to Latin America. Connecting New Jersey to San Palo, Brazil, Seabras 1 offers second-to-none performance through the latest generation of high capacity, ultra-low latency service delivered in a fraction of the time of legacy suppliers.
