Zayo Launches Into the SD-WAN Fray

Zayo Group has launched its SD-WAN solution, which will be an integrated extension of Zayo’s fiber-based IP/MPLS backbone offerings.

Zayo’s SD-WAN is available via channel partners in both basic and advanced packages, including managed and unmanaged options. The solution enables location integration and service provisioning, incorporating MPLS, internet and LTE into primary and multi-path configurations. Dynamic traffic steering prioritizes traffic at the application level to the paths available to deliver an optimal network performance. It also integrates with both internet and IP VPN connections.

“The WAN is one of the most critical components of any enterprise network infrastructure and can be complex and challenging to manage,” said Mike Strople, president of Zayo Enterprise Networks. “Zayo’s SD-WAN makes WAN management easier and more efficient, providing better performance, flexibility and reliability.”
