"Many carriers typically do not have their own network to connect everywhere they need to go, so they look to tw telecom to provide secure, scalable and predictable network connections and solutions that help them deliver applications to their customers' thousands of locations," said Tom Marx, President of tw telecom's Wholesale Services. "Carriers that use E-Access can also avoid capital investments, reduce operating costs and more easily manage their network capability."

Ethernet (E-line EPL and EVPL services) are also MEF Carrier Ethernet 2.0 certified and are key components of the company's Business Ethernet infrastructure and award winning Intelligent Network capabilities.
