As AI-driven demand accelerates, that planning increasingly extends beyond routes and capacity to the physical materials required to build them. Securing fiber optic cable supply now gives Zayo greater flexibility to scale as demand evolves.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAI infrastructure is changing where and how quickly network capacity needs to be built,\u201d said Steve Smith, CEO, Zayo. \u201cWe understand where demand is moving, and we\u2019re putting the physical inputs in place now to build ahead of it. Deepening our relationship with Corning gives us greater confidence that material availability won\u2019t stand between customer demand and the infrastructure required to deliver it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAI is driving a fundamental increase in the amount and density of fiber optic cable and connectivity required across the network,\u201d said Steve Mitchell, Senior Vice President, Corning Incorporated. \u201cAs networks evolve to meet those demands, providers need solutions that can accelerate deployment, increase capacity, and support long-term scalability. Our expanded relationship with Zayo brings together Corning&#8217;s industry-leading optical innovations with Zayo&#8217;s network expertise to help build the physical infrastructure required for AI at scale.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Building the Physical Foundation for the AI Ecosystem<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nAI readiness is physical. Zayo plans to add 15,000 new route miles by 2030, including <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zayo.com%2Fnewsroom%2Fzayo-teams-with-nvidia-to-scale-critical-network-capacity-for-ai-factories%2F&amp;esheet=54592361&amp;newsitemid=20260820853007&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=more+than+8%2C000+miles+of+new+long-haul+fiber+in+collaboration+with+NVIDIA&amp;index=3&amp;md5=d264e04fc22def5884c86158b44eae17\">more than 8,000 miles of new long-haul fiber in collaboration with NVIDIA<\/a>, while adding capacity across existing corridors where AI infrastructure is concentrating. Securing the optical cable earlier in the planning cycle helps Zayo turn those plans into operating infrastructure without allowing material availability to dictate where or when the network can be built.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAnyone can draw a route on a map, but building it is a different story. Long-haul construction requires years of planning, permitting, materials, and disciplined execution,\u201d said Troy Lupe, Chief Network Officer, Zayo. \u201cOur experience building networks at this scale allows us to anticipate and manage execution risks before they become constraints. Corning understands what it takes to support an expansion of this magnitude and the speed required to deliver it. Securing fiber optic cable supply through our expanded agreement takes one critical variable off the table as we execute our network expansion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nTo learn more about Zayo\u2019s network expansion and how its digital infrastructure is connecting the AI ecosystem, visit <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zayo.com%2Fbackbone-for-ai%2F&amp;esheet=54592361&amp;newsitemid=20260820853007&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zayo.com%2Fbackbone-for-ai%2F.&amp;index=4&amp;md5=b96502ef0527db92a0df2aab15c0e836\"><b>https:\/\/www.zayo.com\/backbone-for-ai\/<\/b>.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>About Zayo<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nThe world\u2019s digital future depends on networks that perform.
