In a significant move to broaden its global reach, Telstra International has embarked on an expansion into Latin America beginning with the establishment of a new dedicated point-of-presence (PoP) located at Stemmons Towers in Dallas, Texas. The new Dallas PoP will serve as a critical hub for Telstra’s operations in Latin America, providing a gateway for enhanced communication and technology services.
Telstra International also announced collaborations with leading Mexican telecommunications providers, Axtel and Vivaro. These partnerships are expected to enhance the company’s service offerings and connectivity in Latin America, signifying a new era of telecommunications synergy between these regions. Throughout Mexico, Telstra International now offers global internet, IP transit, and virtual private networks. Telstra International also provides access to more than 10 carrier-neutral data centers in cities such as Mexico City, Monterrey, Queretaro, and Guadalajara, and delivers endpoint termination services for ethernet private lines and MPLS in all of Mexico’s major data centers, enterprise buildings and business parks. These network enhancements facilitate low-latency connectivity into the Mexican Stock Exchange as well, which is important for serving customers in the financial services industry, a key growth area for Telstra globally.
“We’re focused on Latin America as a key growth market as we expect to see increased demand for connectivity from enterprises, hyperscalers and wholesale customers between APAC and the region driven by a technology boom and growing economies. Our official expansion and continued investments in digital infrastructure position us well to offer customers simple and secure options to connect to this dynamic region and leverage our global network,” said Roary Stasko, CEO of Telstra International.
