ATLANTA – Faster business-grade speeds are now available to Cox Business Internetsm customers, thanks to a portfolio enhancement announced today by Cox Business Services. Notably, Cox's 6.0 Mbps of download speed with 1.0 Mbps upstream tier provides business customers with Cox's fastest business-grade broadband Internet service.

“The new Cox Business Internet portfolio is the result of our longstanding commitment to bringing value, speed and reliability to the business customers we serve,” said Kristine Faulkner, vice president product development and management for Cox Business Services. “As businesses continue to intensify their reliance on broadband Internet, Cox has once again proven that it is well positioned to deliver reliable business solutions to meet the evolving needs of commercial customers.”

Cox Business Internet speeds are based on the following tiers*:

Previous Cox Business Internet Speeds	New Cox Business Internet Speeds
256 Kbps/256 Kbps			         768 Kbps/256 Kbps
384 Kbps/384 Kbps		 	         1.5 Mbps/384 Kbps			
768 Kbps/256 Kbps		                  3.0 Mbps/512 Kbps

“The relationship I have with Cox is fundamental to the growth of my business,” said Greg Brown, controller of Progressive Management of America, a full service third party residential property management company with 16 leasing offices across Northwest Florida. “Cox's business expertise and higher upstream and downstream speeds have provided immediate value to my business by making it easier for employees to do their jobs and providing the real time information that management can use to make daily business decisions. The reliability and speed alone have given at least 2 hours of productivity back to my day to spend on my job functions -- rather than troubleshooting technical issues with our leasing offices.”

The company launched an integrated marketing campaign today to encourage new customer relationships and drive the adoption of even faster business-grade Internet speeds.

“Cox is constantly striving to provide even better service,” added Faulkner. “In doing so, we will continue to evolve our broadband portfolio to deliver the features and functionality that matter most to our customers.”
