NTT Communications, a provider of ICT offerings, has interconnected its Arcstar Global IP-VPN with Company TTK’s IP-VPN services in Russia. It has also launched Arcstar Global IP-VPN service throughout Russia.
NTT Com said it along with the Russian fiber-optic network operator TTK, it will provide multinational customers with low-cost access between offices worldwide and throughout Russia.
The strategic partnership between NTT Com and TTK began with a memorandum of understanding signed in 2006 to develop data networks, which resulted in the construction and launch of the Hokkaido-Sakhalin Cable System, a 570 km, 640 gigabit/second undersea fiber-optic cable linking Ishikari, Hokkaido, and Nevelsk, Sakhalin, the shortest route between Japan and Russia.
Yosuke Seki, vice president of service development in the global business division at said NTT Com, said: Russia is a key emerging market for our customers, a main reason why we established NTT Communications Russia in January 2009. TTK, of course, has been a strategic partner of ours since 2006, when we began collaborating on the Hokkaido-Sakhalin Cable System.
