Ribbon Communications last Friday announced that Shawnee Communications, which serves residents and businesses in rural communities in Southern and Central Illinois with modern communications technology, has selected Ribbon’s NPT IP Routing solution for broadband aggregation.
With their modular design, chassis redundancy, and support for multiple routing technologies, Ribbon’s IP routers deliver resiliency and effective traffic protection while eliminating the need for duplicate devices at each site.
Ben McCameron, CTO, Shawnee Communications
Ribbon has been a trusted partner for many years, supporting us with state of the art voice solutions, and leveraging their expertise for broadband aggregation was a natural fit. Their US-based post-sales support and network staging services offer additional peace of mind as we focus on providing our customers with the high speed, resilient capacity our increasingly digital environments demand.
Elizabeth Page, Ribbon’s Senior Director of National Sales
Shawnee is a forward-looking provider, and our role is to enable them to make the most of the opportunities available in their territory, which benefits from new funding opportunities including Connect IL and the Connect America Fund (CAF) and their role in enabling broadband buildouts. We’re dedicated to the ongoing success of this partnership.
