Intelisys to offer Pacnet services in APAC

HONG KONG: Pacnet announced that it has entered into an agreement with Intelisys to join its Supplier Partner program. Intelisys is the largest technology services distributor in the United States and offers a broad suite of technology solutions to ensure the success of its sales agents.

The new agreement will allow Intelisys sub-agents to sell Pacnet's Data Center, MPLS, Ethernet Private Line, IP Transit, Dedicated Internet Access, and Content Delivery Network services throughout the Asia Pacific region including China, Australia, and India.

Pacnet operates the region's most extensive submarine cable network and it is connected to data centers located in most of Asia's largest markets including its CloudSpace facilities in Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, and China.

Intelisys is focused on empowering the independent sales channel by assisting businesses in making informed choices about services, technology, and cost savings and delivers carrier-neutral solutions to end-user customers through a nationwide network of telecommunications sales, consulting professionals, and IT solution providers/VARs.

The Asia-Pacific region has seen explosive growth over the past several years, and more and more US-based companies are either looking to expand their current operations in the region or create new operations - particularly in China and India.

"We have seen from experience that agents' customers may be utilizing providers that do not extend services to Asia, so Pacnet can help them provide additional services for expansion and have a platform to address new opportunities," said Cardi Prinzi, president of Enterprise Markets for Pacnet.
