The deployment is part of a multi-year, multi-million dollar agreement between GTE Internetworking and Redback to provide subscriber access to broadband services. Currently, GTE Internetworking has implemented Redback's SMS in more than 20 U.S. markets in 11 states and is slated for further nationwide expansion in 1999.
