Our switch in New York has seen a complete loss of trunking to the WTC CO. Earlier in the day individual T1s were down in a spotty manner between us and that CO (peppered across the OC48), but now even the SONET ring has dropped. The CO was either in that building or adjacent to it I am told by our techs in NYC. We are now seeing overload on other trunks to the Verizon tandems. -vb ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott Drassinower" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2001 4:23 PM Subject: Verizon COs affected by WTC damage? > > > Verizon has/had a CO (NYCMNYST) in the South Tower of the Trade Center. > I would guess this is now destroyed.
