Ribbon Communications has expanded its partnership with KGPCo, the country’s largest communications network services and supply chain provider.
The expanded partnership enables KGPCo to re-sell Ribbon’s entire portfolio of Cloud & Edge and IP Optical solutions. As part of the expanded relationship KGPCo’s services organization will also be trained on implementation services for Ribbon’s end-to-end portfolio.
KGPCo and Ribbon have partnered to help modernize numerous service providers’ communications networks including CL Tel, Eastern Slope Rural Telephone, and Tombigbee Electric Cooperative. As high-bandwidth applications continue to drive the need for increased network capacity, especially in the tier-two and tier-three markets, we are seeing more operators and utilities invest in projects that enable them to deliver faster broadband and more services, said the company.

Desi O’Grady SVP, Service Provider Sales for KGPCo
Together KGPCo and Ribbon have the expertise and product breadth to fully support these customers through every phase of their transformation, ranging from optical network upgrades, to enhanced network security and improved analytics, to expanded SIP trunk routing and other mission-critical areas.
