Disruptive Semiconductor Technology Leader Luxcore Signs Multi-year Colocation Deal with INAP
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Luxcore selects INAP to support their ground breaking second generation
LambdaRouterTM --- the first full wavelength optical router.
INAP chosen for its global presence in strategic markets, carrier neutrality and
signature Performance IPTM service.
ATLANTA, Nov. 09, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Internap Corporation (NASDAQ:INAP),
("INAP" or the "Company"), a provider of high-performance internet
infrastructure including colocation, cloud and network services, and Luxcore,
pioneers of a revolutionary all-optical wavelength routing platform, today
announced a multi-year agreement for colocation services in seven global
locations.
Luxcore, creator of the LambdaRouterTM - the world's first all-optical,
wavelength switching, routing and transport system, selected INAP as its
strategic partner to access the company's global coverage and connectivity to
Tier 1 providers, utilizing INAP's access to dark fiber at all its locations.
To demonstrate its disruptive technology during its initial rollout, Luxcore
selected seven INAP data centers in the following major markets: Atlanta,
Dallas, Silicon Valley (Santa Clara), New York & New Jersey Metro Area, Northern
Virginia & D.C. Metro Area, Singapore and Amsterdam.
"Luxcore is poised to lead a significant shift in the underlying technology of
the internet and we are excited to be their partner on that journey," said Corey
Needles, INAP COLO's SVP and General Manager. "Given our global reach and
network connectivity utilizing multiple carrier networks and our own fiber, we
are uniquely positioned to help Luxcore succeed."
Luxcore is strategically partnering with INAP in a flagship venture to deliver
the industry's first all-optical wavelength switching, routing and transport
capabilities of the second generation LambdaRouterTM. When combined with INAP's
global reach, unprecedented Tier 1 interconnectivity and dark fiber, Luxcore
will introduce the "Optical Internet" providing significant new revenue
opportunities for both INAP and Luxcore.
"When we introduced our first LambdaRouterTM in Spring of 2001, it was the
world's first and only multi-terabit wavelength switching, routing and transport
system based on proprietary optical semiconductor technology. The global telecom
market subsequently collapsed and many said we were way ahead of our time. 15
years ago, there was no demand for such robust optical capacity. Fast forward to
today's mobile, social and device-driven data economy and the need for ultra-
high speed bandwidth is an absolute necessity. Global internet traffic has grown
exponentially measured in zettabytes, and the underlying backbone infrastructure
has hit a wall. Partnering with INAP allows Luxcore to fulfill its original
corporate vision - to build the new 'Optical Internet,'" said Gerald Ramdeen,
Luxcore Chairman and CEO.
With over 1 million square feet in 21 metropolitan markets and 89 POPs, INAP's
collocation and network services offers the proximity and connectivity needed
for INAP customers to be successful in the global marketplace.

About Luxcore
2001, Luxcore introduced the LambdaRouterTM - the world's first fully-
integrated, all-optical switching, routing and transport system built upon
proprietary semiconductor technology having origins from the Stanford University
Center for Novel Optoelectronic Materials (CNOM), demonstrating 2.5Gbs and
10Gbs single port speeds at the lowest cost per bit. Luxcore Networks, Luxcore
Optronics, Jedai Networks, (formerly Jedai Broadband Networks) - now Luxcore,
Inc. has since leveraged in excess of $100MM in venture funding from prominent
VC and private equity firms to develop the second generation of our award-
winning LambdaRouterTM and the LambdaExchangeTM - introducing 100Gbs single port
speeds at the lowest cost per bit. For more information, visit www.luxcore.com.
