Global Crossing (NASDAQ: GLBC), a global IP solutions provider, has deployed 14 new 10 Gigabit per second (Gbps) Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) ports for SoftLayer, a global leader in cloud, dedicated and managed private hosting. Global Crossing DIA connects enterprise networks to the Internet, enabling superior communication among employees, customers and business partners with on-demand scalable bandwidth for increased capacity whenever it is needed.

Global Crossing is a Tier 1 Internet Service Provider (ISP). The company's single Autonomous System (AS) number translates to fewer data hand-offs for faster transmission, less down-time and greater productivity. The Global Crossing network provides the highest levels of security through its precedent-setting National Security Agreement (NSA) mandated by the U.S. Federal Government. DIA also can be integrated with Global Crossing IP VPN (Virtual Private Network) or other types of transport services as one seamless offer from core to edge to reduce management load, total bandwidth requirements and expenses.
