Zayo Group, the fiber network operator based in Boulder, CO, has launched its new subsea cable route, dubbed Zeus, connecting the U.K. and continental Europe via access points in Lowestoft, U.K. and Zandvoort, Netherlands. The undersea route includes terrestrial backhaul connectivity from those access points to the key London and Amsterdam markets. Zeus is purpose-built to connect with 10 primary cloud on-ramps and over 80 data centers between these core markets via Zayo’s extensive European terrestrial network.
Zayo engineered Zeus to be the most dense, deeply-buried and robust cable available in the North Sea. The Zeus cable is 100 percent double armored and contains 192 separate fiber strands, the highest fiber count of any cable connecting the U.K. and mainland Europe. It utilizes Corning’s SMF-28 ultra-low loss (ULL) optical fibers and has an optical wavelength throughput of up to 600 Gbps on a single channel between London and Amsterdam using dense wave division multiplexing systems.
