Ribbon Opens Office in Sydney to Support Growth in APAC

Ribbon Communications Inc., a global provider of real time communications technology and IP optical networking solutions to many of the world’s largest service providers, enterprises, and critical infrastructure operators to modernize and protect their networks, has launched its new Australian headquarters and customer showcase and demonstration facilities in Sydney.

The new facilities will support Ribbon’s staff, customers and channel partners while enhancing the company’s ability to serve and support customers in Australia, New Zealand and the SE Asia region.

“We are delighted to be launching our new Sydney facilities today as an integral part of our multi-year expansion program in the region,” said Robert Inshaw, Ribbon’s Managing Director Australia and New Zealand. “These new facilities will help to support our growth momentum after signing agreements with several Tier 1 service providers in the region with our IP and Optical networking platforms, as well as the continued strength we are seeing in the SBC market, and with innovative cloud products like Ribbon Connect.”

The new facilities will include a state of the art customer demonstration area, training facilities, Proof of Concept (POC) laboratories, and house post-sales support and technical operations teams.

Ribbon supplies critical IP and optical networking equipment to Australia and New Zealand’s largest telecommunications carriers and supports enterprise customers via a large number of channel partners and systems integrators that supply Ribbon equipment (SBCs) and cloud communication services for highly secure, efficient and intelligent communications services.

Inshaw continued, “We would like to thank our customers, partners and employees for their continued commitment to Ribbon’s business and technology. Ribbon is deeply committed to the success of our carrier and enterprise clients in the region, and today’s launch of our new Sydney office facilities will lay the foundation for the next phase of our expansion here and underpin our growth ambitions in the region for many years to come.”
