Enhancing Global Connectivity
Zayo stated that these expansions come as part of Zayo’s investment in its independent fibre network infrastructure, announced in April. The company plans to add nearly 3,000 route miles and over 700,000 fibre miles to its global network.
The new long-haul dark fibre routes offer diverse routing options, while their underground construction ensures the highest level of security and redundancy.
Prominent among these routes are connections from St. Louis to Indianapolis and the Chicago to Omaha Overbuild, strategically designed to provide enhanced connectivity in rapidly growing markets and more direct paths between key cities.

The company said four new 400G-enabled routes have been operational since the second quarter of 2023, with two more slated for completion in the third quarter. Among the cities that benefit from high-bandwidth options are Las Vegas to Phoenix, Kansas City to Indianapolis, Dallas to East St. Louis and others.
