The comms infrastructure provider believes the future of AI will be built as much in the ground as it is in the labs and datacentres, and considers its new route as establishing a backbone for how the western US connects, drives and scales AI data, compute and cloud environments.Built with SMF-28 fibre, multiple conduits and 13 Zayo-owned ILAs, the route is engineered for low latency and high fibre count to support the increasing vast workloads of AI and cloud. With its completion, the UPR route integrates into Zayo’s existing West Coast long-haul and subsea network systems, extending connectivity across the western US and strengthening the backbone supporting the region’s growing AI corridor.
