NEW BANDWIDTH PROVIDER EMERGES
[SOURCE: TelecomWeb]
A pair of former Level 3 veterans, armed with an acquisition war chest of almost a quarter of a billion dollars, has begun buying up small bandwidth providers around the country, melding them into a new, larger company they've christened Zayo Bandwidth. The market target is carriers, government, enterprises and other major bandwidth users. The grand plan is to put together a company offering bandwidth service in smaller metropolitan areas where the major Tier 1 bandwidth providers don't provide service. Zayo would then "fill in the gaps," providing service to, perhaps, an enterprise with a branch or factory located in one of those areas.
