Zayo's Bill Long sounds off on the middle mile

In this latest episode of the Broadband Pulse podcast, we talk to Bill Long, Zayo's chief product officer. Long leads the company's overall product strategy, financials, and roadmap. In this episode, we discuss the importance of the middle-mile fiber network. Zayo has been an advocate for middle-mile networks. The provider is set to receive $92.8 million through the NTIA’s middle-mile program for three separate middle-mile projects touching eight states. It was recently contracted by the State of Nevada to lead a $153 million open-access fiber network targeting underserved locations throughout rural parts of the state. It also won a $27.8 million funding grant from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) to expand middle-mile infrastructure and deliver equitable Internet access across Dallas County, Texas.
