Colocation Provider Selects Zayo for Major Network Upgrade

Press Release

Zayo to provide 100G wavelength connectivity

BOULDER, Colo. –
Zayo Group Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: ZAYO) has been selected by a leading
colocation provider for a wavelengths network to connect its facilities
in the U.S. Zayo will provide a high-performance 100G wavelength
solution connecting its data centers that will serve as the company’s
backbone. The solution leverages Zayo’s existing fiber network,
including recently acquired network from Electric Lightwave.

Resilient, secure, high-speed connectivity is a critical requirement for
optimal data center performance. Increasingly, data center providers are
investing to upgrade their interconnect solutions, as the risk of poor
performance or downtime can be damaging and costly.

“Zayo’s expansive long haul wavelength network will enable this customer
to significantly upgrade its network to accommodate current workloads,
new traffic and future growth,” said Jack Waters, CTO and president of
Network Solutions at Zayo. “Our dense fiber assets and ability to meet
strict diversity requirements for every route were the key
differentiators.”

The solution, which includes more than 20 diverse routes, will also
enable the customer to consolidate infrastructure providers, eliminating
complexity and significantly improving efficiency.
