Our Fibre and Transport Products

  • 400G Wavelength

    Customers today increasingly demand real-time, data-driven services. To keep up with the competition and satisfy customers, organisations must take advantage of bandwidth-intensive applications like artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT), and advanced analytics. These applications require high bandwidth and low-latency connectivity to work optimally. Legacy infrastructure and small circuits simply can’t keep up with today’s demand. 

  • Cable Landing Stations

    We have presence in France, Germany, The UK, Switzerland, Belgium, Italy, and Scotland and we’re in all key cable landing stations that connect Europe to International Markets, such as – Marseille, Bordeaux, Lowestoft (for London), Zandvoort (for Amsterdam), Eastbourne (for London), Caueux-Sur-Mer (for Paris), Brighton (for Slough/London), Veules-les-Roses (for Paris), Deeside (for Wales), Holyhead (for Wales), Dublin, Blackpool, and Newcastle.

  • Dark Fibre

    Zayo’s deep, diverse, expansive Long Haul Dark Fibre network takes you where you need to go – now and in the future. Our Long Haul Dark Fibre routes connect Points of Presence (PoPs) in key markets and Zayo’s unique In-Line Amplification (ILA) sites with options to extend directly to your location with Metro Dark Fibre. From there, you take complete control – add your equipment to light and manage the fibre.

  • Subsea Routes

    Securing fast, reliable and high-capacity subsea connectivity is crucial to capturing global opportunity. Zayo’s fully diverse subsea network connectivity and PoP design provides the diverse, high-availability, and low latency solutions needed to compete in worldwide markets. With flexible bandwidth options, full stack product offerings, strong peering partnerships and multiple strong partner relationships, Zayo’s reach expands beyond core cable landing stations, securely connecting customers to the world’s key international markets.
