So far this year FLAG has signed major contracts for additional capacity with six international carriers and one global Internet content provider.

Chris Wood, FLAG's VP Marketing, said in a statement, “Volume growth has been driven by the increased use of broadband services by businesses and by the deployment of ever faster delivery speeds of 2Mbits/s and beyond to the home.”
