Zayo Group designs, builds and operates fiber optic network infrastructure, delivering bandwidth connectivity and network services to carriers, enterprises and government agencies. Founded in 2007, the company has become one of the largest independent fiber infrastructure providers in the world, with a network spanning 141,000 miles and thousands of connected buildings and data centers across North America and Europe. It employs more than 3,700 people.
The company's portfolio is built around fiber-based connectivity products. These include dark fiber - unlit cable leased to customers for use with their own equipment - as well as wavelength services for high-capacity bandwidth delivery, Ethernet services, dedicated internet access and private networks for mission-critical applications. Alongside design and construction, the business covers network maintenance and operations, a technical scope that spans fiber optic networks, network infrastructure construction and ongoing bandwidth management.
Zayo serves customers in wireless and wireline carriers, media, technology, financial services, healthcare and government. The company has been private since 2020, a structure it says allows it to focus on long-term network investment and customer relationships rather than quarterly earnings expectations. Growth has come through both organic expansion and strategic acquisitions.
