Zayo Europe introduces new wavelength route between London and Paris

Zayo Europe has introduced a new DWDM route connecting London to Paris, enhancing its diversity options between the two cities.

This new route strengthens Zayo Europe’s already extensive network in both the UK and France, offering more destinations at either end of the service than other providers in the market. It will also provide a completely diverse alternative on Zayo Europe’s existing cable system, working alongside its other routes across the Channel.

This new development also enables separate connections between other cities, such as Manchester to Frankfurt, with no overlap in networks. Zayo Europe expects around a 20% reduction in transit time or latency between points of presence (PoPs), like London and Paris. This route will improve network reliability and security for customers by removing the ‘single point of failure’ and providing reliable connections, lower latency and lower downtime risk.

Zayo Europe’s new route is 400G ready, providing immediate scalability to meet customers’ bandwidth needs as they grow. In total, Zayo Europe now operates five subsea routes between the UK and continental Europe. This new CrossChannel route complements existing Circe South and Channel Tunnel routes between London and Paris, whilst Zeus and Circe North link London to Amsterdam.

Michael Katz, VP for Product & Technology at Zayo Europe, said: “As the surge in adoption of cloud and AI technologies drives an increased demand on networks, the demand for reliable, low-latency connectivity has increased, while the tolerance for network outages has diminished.

“Zayo Europe is committed to providing the best connectivity and reliability for our customers across the continent, and this new cross-Channel wavelength route marks a great improvement in the diversity we can offer between these two major hubs and beyond. This high-capacity, low-latency solution will significantly benefit those seeking a fast and secure connection between London and Paris, and will be crucial for those needing to build reliable and secure network solutions.”
