As business continues to grow within the communications sector, XO Communications announced they have expanded their operations by opening in Toronto and bringing their high-speed network services to enterprise and wholesale services.

“As the largest network hub in Canada and a major hub in North America, Toronto is a key business center for the finance, high-tech, media and telecommunications industries,” said Don MacNeil, Chief Marketing Officer for XO Communications. “Our expansion into Canada will enable XO to provide high-capacity network services to better serve businesses like these on both sides of the border, whether they need connectivity in Toronto or high-speed access to markets in the U.S.”

XO Communications has expanded its fiber network into the largest telecommunications facility in Canada located at 151 Front Street West in Toronto. As part of its expansion, the company is now connected to over a dozen major data center colocation facilities through its partner Cologix, which connects to more than 150 telecommunications companies. The company can now offer wholesale and enterprise network services, including high-speed Internet access, MPLS IP-VPN, private line, Ethernet and wavelength services, at speeds up to 10 Gbps in Toronto through its Canadian subsidiary. These services run over a fully diverse 550-mile Toronto metro and Canadian long-haul fiber network connecting back to the U.S. at multiple locations.
