Press Release Summary: Geo is the only provider whose fibre network runs deep
through the sewers of London, ensuring higher reliability, security and reducing the
downtime caused by upgrades and routine works

Press Release Body: Geo, a leading provider of bespoke fibre networks, today
announced further extension of its fibre network in London, connecting into a major
Data Centre on London's South Bank. Geo's latest network development through the
sewers in London will enable companies around London Bridge to benefit from faster
and more efficient connectivity.


This new route extends Geo's existing Central London 'Green Zone' network across
London Bridge, along Southwark Street, behind the Tate Modern and terminating at a
major Data Centre in Hopton Street. Geo offers capacities between 1 - 10Gbps as well
as dedicated point-to-point fibre, providing customers with a more flexible approach
to managing their growing bandwidth requirements.


Geo is the only provider whose fibre network runs deep through the sewers of London,
ensuring higher reliability, security and reducing the downtime caused by upgrades
and routine works. Other advantages of routing fibre through the sewers include the
considerably reduced lead times and expenditure brought by avoiding costly digs
through the city. By extending Geo's network South of the Thames, companies along
this route can take advantage of these benefits for the first time.


"Geo will continue its aggressive network expansion into the second half of 2008,
following last year's successful 20% increase in fibre across our London Green
Zone," commented Mark Ryder, Sales Director, Geo.Metro. "This latest development
will allow us to sharpen our focus on providing leading Financial, Public Sector,
Professional Service and Media companies in the area with our flexible, high
bandwidth solutions."
