Engineered to carrier-grade standards
Ethernet can form part of the backbone of your network, offering maximum flexibility to link your locations using our carrier-grade service. In New Zealand, services can be extended out from our point of presences via our own fibre optic network (or third party access) in major New Zealand towns and cities, as well as across the country via our national backhaul network. We also currently maintains international point of presences in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Adelaide, Perth, Singapore, San Jose, Palo Alto, Los Angeles and Hong Kong.
