With this deployment, Zayo\u2019s customers will experience faster and more reliable internet services and will gain access to a broader set of services \u2014 including cloud access and data center connectivity over secure high-speed links \u2014 which drive productivity, improve collaboration, and open new economic opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>The first phase of deployment is underway in New York and New Jersey, with expansion planned to dozens of additional markets and thousands of lit buildings in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>Zayo\u2019s fiber footprint spans over 19 million fiber miles and 147,000 route miles, connecting 400 markets and more than 1,500 on-net data centers globally. The new network architecture allows Zayo to deploy connectivity in new markets and bring more lit buildings online in record time, enabling the company to expand its reach and quickly respond to changing market conditions. The ability to rapidly deliver high-capacity infrastructure closer to its end user also reduces exposure to single points of failure, minimizes congestion, and ensures stable, resilient performance across Zayo\u2019s IP backbone. This transformation to a more modular and scalable solution with Nokia\u2019s next-generation IP router solution positions Zayo to meet growing bandwidth demand \u2014 including delivering 400G and 800G-capable services at scale \u2014 to support the next wave of cloud and edge computing and enable faster access to digital services for its customers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy partnering with Nokia, we\u2019re setting a new standard for what\u2019s possible in fiber-based connectivity. The ability to rapidly light up new buildings and markets on our IP network allows us to more quickly respond to customer demand faster, which is increasingly important in today\u2019s fast-evolving market. Nokia\u2019s solution delivers the reliability, performance, and agility we need to meet the growing needs of our customers\u2014from cloud providers and data centers to schools and enterprises,\u201d said Aaron Werley, SVP of Engineering, Zayo.<\/p>\n<p>This next-generation architecture replaces Zayo\u2019s existing Provider Edge infrastructure with Nokia\u2019s high-performance IP router solution. Built on Nokia\u2019s advanced FP5-based 7750 Service Router and the Nokia 7250 Interconnect Router (IXR), the new solution enables rapid deployment, increased reliability, and simplified operations across Zayo\u2019s extensive global network. The new Nokia architecture enhances scalability, allowing Zayo to serve more customers while improving reliability and performance across its infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis collaboration with Zayo reflects a shared commitment to advancing connectivity and creating new opportunities for digital transformation across industries. It\u2019s also a great example of how Nokia\u2019s technology leadership can accelerate network transformation for our customers. With our FP5-based platforms and deep expertise in IP networks, we\u2019re enabling Zayo to deploy services faster, simplify operations, and lead the market with flexible, future-ready infrastructure. Together, we\u2019re delivering the kind of innovation that sets a new bar for the entire industry,\u201d said Jeff Valley, Vice President, IP Networks, Nokia.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Multimedia, technical information and related news<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Product Page:\u00a0Nokia 7750 Service Router<\/p>\n<p>Product Page:\u00a0<u>Nokia 7250 Interconnect Routers<\/u><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>About Nokia<\/b><\/p>\n<p>At Nokia, we create technology that helps the world act together.<\/p>\n<p>As a B2B technology innovation leader, we are pioneering networks that sense, think and act by leveraging our work across mobile, fixed and cloud networks.
