FiberNet Announces Agreement With Logicworks [10th April 2003]

NEW YORK, Apr 10, 2003 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- FiberNet Telecom Group, Inc. (FTGX) , a leading provider of metropolitan optical connectivity, announced today it has completed an agreement with Logicworks, a private New York-based managed hosting provider to deliver colocation and metro Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel transport services. These services extend Logicworks' network throughout New York City and New Jersey allowing Logicworks to expand its service offerings throughout the New York metro market.

Joe Leuci, Senior Vice President - Sales & Marketing of FiberNet said, "We are very pleased to be able to offer both our colocation and transport solutions to a managed hosting provider such as Logicworks, further diversifying our customer base. This is evidence that the portfolio of FiberNet services adds value across industries."

Carter Burden, Logicworks' President and CEO said, "FiberNet provides the ideal infrastructure platform for Logicworks' managed hosting services and enables new offerings, such as stretched SAN solutions, which have not previously been available in a managed hosting environment. Our partnership with FiberNet gives our customers unprecedented flexibility in selecting diverse locations for their managed dedicated servers, which is highly desirable for both disaster recovery and compliance-driven data warehousing needs. Logicworks' outsourced solutions provide customers with a level of reliability, security, and manageability that would be either impossible or prohibitively expensive for them to replicate on their own."
