Zayo, a provider of fiber-based bandwidth infrastructure and network-neutral colocation services, and T1Company, a provider of high-speed dedicated access and hosted Cisco VoIP services, have entered into a dark fiber agreement for services in the Cleveland market.
The T1Company provides an array of Internet and traditional services including: leased lines, managed firewall and VPN, hosted VoIP, web and email hosting, colocation, data storage and retrieval.
The offering includes existing and newly constructed fiber and is scheduled to be complete in June 2011.
T1Company president Don Hemmelgarn said Zayo’s fiber will connect their data centre to the heart of the business district in downtown Cleveland.
"This connectivity gives us the opportunity to provide affordable high-speed Ethernet and private line services to businesses we previously were not able to serve," Hemmelgarn said.
"Metro and wide area Ethernet services are simply the next evolution in our history of bringing leading edge technology and competitive advantage to our customers and we are pleased to have Zayo as our partner in this endeavor."
