Savvis to build its own fiber-optic network
NEW YORK, Sept 12 (Reuters) - Savvis Communications Corp. (NasdaqNM:SVVS - news), which provides data networking services to businesses, said on Tuesday it will build its own fiber-optic communications network that will replace the lines it leases from other service providers.

Building and managing its own network will allow Herdon, Va.-based Savvis to reduce its expenses, better control its growth and provide new services to customers, the company said. The fiber-optic backbone will be in place by the fourth quarter of 2001.

Savvis said it will use 20,000 route-miles of fiber from Level 3 Communications Inc. (NasdaqNM:LVLT - news) and buy equipment and services from Nortel Networks Corp. (NYSE:NT - news) Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
