AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 8, 2004--Broadwing
Communications, LLC, a consolidated subsidiary of Corvis Corporation
(Nasdaq:CORV), today announced that Cozen O'Connor has signed an
agreement with Broadwing for MultiConnect(sm) private line services.
"Cozen O'Connor required a solution that would provide high
bandwidth, internal and external communications connectivity and
scalability for storage," said Jeffrey Brandt, CIO at Cozen O'Connor.
"Broadwing's performance has exceeded our expectations and we continue
to be impressed with the cost effective service and enhanced features
provided by their solution."
MultiConnect is a distance insensitive, protocol agnostic,
flat-rate solution, specifically designed to enable professional
service customers, such as law firms and accounting firms, to create
high performance wide area networks (WANs) using private bandwidth.
These attributes make MultiConnect an ideal solution for customers who
have an increasing need for a high performance network to interconnect
offices on a national scale, to maximize storage networking and
business continuity.
Today, large professional service firms have multiple points of
presence over which the workload is distributed to meet the diverse
requirements of their clients. MultiConnect exploits the low latency,
high flexibility and reliability of Broadwing's nationwide,
all-optical core network to deliver unparalleled, one-of-a-kind
service to address these needs. MultiConnect customers also have the
option of adding MultiConnect ReDirect, which provides last mile
resiliency for the network.
Cozen O'Connor is connecting its domestic locations, using
Broadwing's nationwide all-optical network.
"We are pleased that law firms, such as Cozen O'Connor, and other
professional service firms with high performance network requirements
are turning to Broadwing for their communications needs," said Richard
Putt, president of National Accounts. "MultiConnect has the features,
such as low latency, flexibility, reliability, and security combined
with straight forward, cost effective pricing, that provide
professional service firms with robust communications platforms to
support their business, while driving down their operating expenses."
Cozen O'Connor is a full service law firm with 480 attorneys
practicing in the firm's 20 offices across the United States and its
international office in London. The firm also has a Toronto-based
subsidiary for subrogation consulting and alliances with a Canadian
law firm and a government relations joint venture in Washington, D.C.
Founded in 1968, Cozen O'Connor is ranked among the 100 largest law
