Level 3 Connects Philippine Provider

Level 3 Communications has entered into an agreement with the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (PLDT). Under the terms of the agreement, PLDT will use Level 3's landing station connectivity at the Asia America Gateway (AAG) submarine cable system.

Level 3's services provide a scalable extension of the PLDT pan-Asian network to carry voice, data and video traffic in the United States.

Cable landing station connectivity provides a critical component of the global network architecture for international carriers. The Level 3 network offers multiple options for cable landing station connectivity to enable transmission of subsea cable traffic.
