ZenFi Expands Dark Fiber Footprint in NYC

ZenFi has completed dark fiber build-outs at ColoGuard’s CGNY1 data center in Brooklyn, and at 32 Avenue of the Americas in Manhattan.

The buildouts will connect a diverse set of customers across multiple industry verticals, including carriers and enterprises, with the ability to incorporate additional diversity into their routes to and from destinations in the New York-New Jersey metro area.

“The dark fiber build-outs at ColoGuard’s Brooklyn carrier-neutral hotel and 32 Avenue of the Americas marks another critical phase of ZenFi’s aggressive network expansion,” said ZenFi president and CEO Ray LaChance. “Dark fiber is the most flexible connectivity option for carriers and enterprises, as it can support multiple services with different protocols simultaneously. Organizations whose connectivity requirements call for diverse routing now have a new, flexible and reliable option in these facilities to better serve their customers.”

ZenFi owns and operates a carrier-neutral dark fiber network specializing in fronthaul, backhaul and wavelength connectivity. The company provides on-net connectivity to eight major carrier hotels in New York City and 19 data centers in New Jersey.
