BOULDER,
Colo.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Zayo Group Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: ZAYO) today announced
a new 100G capable wavelength route from Montreal, Quebec to Albany, New York.
The new route will provide multiple terabits of long haul transport capacity
between Montreal and major northeast U.S. markets and is expected to be in
service by January 2020.
The
success-based wavelength route will offer full, physical triversity out of
Montreal, providing a shorter and more direct path to Albany. From Albany,
routes traverse either East to Boston or South to New York City and most other
northeast markets. It also provides an attractive additional route from
Toronto, Canada’s financial capital, to New York City.
Montreal
is the largest city in Quebec, Canada. The metro area is a hub for technology,
including artificial intelligence (AI), gaming, commerce, culture, finance and
world affairs. This wavelength route provides a differentiated option for
carriers, fintech, webscale and other enterprises needing high-speed, dedicated
connectivity.
“This
route enables customers to directly connect from Montreal to New York City,
Ashburn, New Jersey, Philly and other major cities in the northeast without
having to double the distance and latency via routes that traverse west,” said
Annette Murphy, executive vice president of Lit Solutions at Zayo. “This also
provides a new redundant and diverse option out of Toronto back to Montreal and
the East Coast and strengthens our position in the pan-North American
marketplace.”
Zayo’s
extensive wavelength network provides dedicated bandwidth to major data
centers, carrier hotels, cable landing stations and enterprise locations in
North American and Western Europe. Options include express, ultra-low and
low-latency routes and private dedicated networks.
