Transbeam Snags Infrastructure Upgrade Contract in Manhattan

Transbeam, a managed service provider for data, voice, cloud and professional services, has completed both a copper and fiber network infrastructure upgrade at 589 5th Avenue in Manhattan, a 16-story commercial building, occupying 500,000 square feet.  Building owner Western Management Corporation recognized Transbeam for providing a fully redundant, reliable and diverse backbone infrastructure.

“We are very honored to have been selected for this high standard project of designing and installing a new network infrastructure for 589 5th Avenue, one of the most popular landmark buildings in New York City,” said Avner Nebel, COO at Transbeam.

Transbeam was one of seventeen service providers that had been invited to bid on the buildings project by way of a formal RFP process, managed by Velstar, a retained telecommunications consultant to Western Management.  Transbeam was selected for their expertise in fiber based technology, network redundancy, resiliency and scalability of broadband services.

“Out of several service providers that submitted proposals, Transbeam demonstrated key competencies with both their engineering and project management teams that complimented well-known network presence in the NYC area,” said Tony Ruggieri, managing partner at Velstar.
