GTE and Cisco announce their intention to jointly develop enhanced internetworking capabilities to power GTE's network. Beyond the network infrastructure, the companies have committed to deliver targeted, turn-key, bundled solutions of applications, equipment installation, maintenance and telecommunication services.
Denver-based Qwest Communications Corp. is constructing a fiber-based national backbone network which will be equipped with state-of-the-art opto-electronics. The network will span 13,000 miles, connecting 92 metropolitan areas, including Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and Washington, D.C. In an agreement announced Monday, GTE will acquire 24 dark fibers, and certain associated facilities, in the new Qwest network.
"When completed in 1998, the network will provide the foundation for a myriad of high-speed data communication services. GTE's network will greatly reduce the high upfront cost of today's private data networks, making advanced data communications more affordable for a greater segment of the population," Foster stated. |
