stronger connectivity options for enterprises connecting through
QTS' Santa Clara data center.

The QTS multi-building data center is located in the heart of
Silicon Valley, one of the top data center markets in the U.S.
Reliable, low latency connectivity is critical to the success of
enterprises and a growing number of technology companies located in
the area. Bandwidth IG offers the newest, highest quality dark
fiber network in Santa Clara and
has the ability to provide bulk dark fiber to QTS customers.
As part of the project, Bandwidth IG recently constructed a new
completely diverse entrance to the QTS campus. Bandwidth IG's
network design provides shorter paths between locations, giving
customers unprecedented diversity and low latency.
"We understand that today's data center customers require a
resilient, robust, secure and diverse network, and our newly built
dark fiber infrastructure across Northern
California enables data center operators to create that
environment," said Jim Nolte, CEO
for Bandwidth IG. "Our continued investment in the Bay Area gives
QTS the only new fiber infrastructure in Silicon Valley, allowing
end users to solve their connectivity needs today and well into the
future."
QTS data centers feature diverse connectivity for cloud and
hybrid colocation including carrier-neutral cloud interconnection,
multiple fiber routes and IP providers. Last year, Bandwidth IG
deployed dark fiber to QTS' Atlanta Metro Mega Data Center campus.
After experiencing success there, QTS turned to Bandwidth IG to
increase bandwidth at its Santa
Clara location.
"Silicon Valley is one of the most important data center markets
in the world with growing requirements for diverse connectivity and
dark fiber," said Sean Baillie,
Executive Vice President, Connectivity Strategy, QTS. "Bandwidth
IG's high count, diverse fiber will play a central role supporting
our focus on creating a diverse connectivity ecosystem serving the
Bay area and beyond."
Bandwidth IG's Northern
California dark fiber network spans more than 160 route
miles and 289,000 fiber miles. To learn more about Bandwidth IG,
