KDDI America

KDDI America recently announced the next step in the ongoing expansion of the KDDI US Powered Ethernet network, by installing its own Ethernet network hub facilities in data centers in Chicago, IL; Ashburn, VA; and Dallas, TX.

KDDI America successfully launched US Powered Ethernet network in February, providing high-speed, scalable Ethernet connectivity to several U.S. businesses, providing its clients with scalable bandwidth – anywhere from 1Mbps to 10Gbps – over its own international Ethernet network.

The US Powered Ethernet network is designed to reach 99.999% of actual availability, emulating KDDI Group’s success in providing comparable Ethernet services, internationally.
