The interconnection provides Azzurro HD customers with access to Genesis Networks' Portable Bandwidth Service on a global fiber network with points of presence throughout North America, Europe and Asia.  Genesis Networks gains all-digital connectivity to Azzurro HD's expanding customer base in the metro New York region and across the United States. 

"We're proud to have Genesis Networks join our growing network of transmission service providers on the ground and via satellite," says Francis G. Luperella, President Azzurro HD.  "Now our growing customer base can benefit from Genesis Networks' HD Video over IP transmission services to major cities around the world."  

"Azzurro HD represents the next generation of switching facilities," adds Genesis Networks President Paul Dujardin.  "Creating a POP there in the television capital of the East Coast was an easy decision for us to make."
