Lead Team: Zayo, a provider of
fiber-based bandwidth infrastructure and network-neutral colocation and
interconnection services, announced that its Fiber-To-The-Tower
(FTT) network has reached another 2,000 unique towers on-net.
“Zayo’s
FTT Network expansion is a strategic initiative enabling carriers to better
serve customers in need of next generation networks. We are also building more
than 500 additional towers which will be brought on-net in the near future,”
said David Howson, president of Zayo Bandwidth.
The company’s
FTT Network now offers more than 100G in overall bandwidth to over 3,000
tenants, with 46 markets in service and 6 more markets under construction.
Throughout its history, Zayo has deployed over 4,000 metro route miles to
support its FTT network.
“T-Mobile’s
experience with Zayo on Fiber-To-The-Tower projects has been excellent. Zayo
has worked through complex network designs, provided creative solutions and
expedited service delivery that helped T-Mobile deliver amazing customer
experiences on America’s Largest 4G Network, while providing exceptional
service and network reliability. Zayo is considered one of T-Mobile’s top
backhaul suppliers,” said Bryan Fleming, VP of Technical Systems and Business
Operations for T-Mobile USA.
Last year, Zayo
announced its expansion of fiber network into San Diego. The company said that
once completed, Zayo’s network will exceed 400 route miles throughout the San
Diego metropolitan area.
