Traditional MTDC colocation is built for hyperscale. The pricing and contract terms reflect it, as does the experience of being a 2-cabinet customer at a facility designed for 2,000. Ziply Fiber Edge Colo is built for your needs.
Our facilities occupy hardened central offices with redundant power systems, backup generators, climate control and 24/7 physical security. These buildings are purpose-built for critical infrastructure and have been operating that way for decades. What makes our approach genuinely different is what's behind the walls. Every facility connects directly to our 400G-ready backbone.
That means your equipment is on the network from day one. There are no cross-connect fees, no congested meet-me rooms and no third-party handoffs to troubleshoot when the unexpected happens. The connectivity and the colocation come from the same provider, on the same infrastructure, with one accountable team behind both.
Every facility connects directly to Ziply Fiber’s 400G-ready fiber backbone. There’s no need to buy colocation then separately negotiate connectivity. Both come from the same infrastructure, eliminating the cross-connect fees, carrier handoffs and performance variables common in MTDC environments.
Our sites are engineered to telco standards, featuring redundant power, backup generation, climate control and 24/7 physical security. When power or weather events hit, these facilities stay operational.
Most carrier and enterprise workloads don't need hyperscale environments. With Ziply Fiber, you get a colocation environment that’s built for deployments of 1-10 cabinets, with pricing and contract terms that reflect that reality.
Because Ziply Fiber owns and operates both the facilities and the fiber network, troubleshooting starts and ends with one team. You won’t need to coordinate between facility operators and separate carriers, or deal with the finger-pointing that comes with managing multiple vendors.
Ziply Fiber Edge Colo is a practical alternative to major MTDC providers. You’ll get the reliable colocation, hardened facilities and enterprise-grade network you need, without the inflated cross-connect fees or hyperscale overhead.
Edge Colo is one tier in our colocation ecosystem. The same backbone extends to 70+ connected data centers and premium partner facilities nationwide. As your footprint grows, you can add locations without rearchitecting your connectivity model or adding new providers.
Ziply Fiber's network spans key markets from the West Coast to Chicago and Ashburn, with dense metro fiber rings across Seattle, Portland, Hillsboro, Boise and Spokane and a unique Northern Link Route reaching Minneapolis and Chicago. Edge Colo facilities sit directly on that backbone in key markets across the footprint.
Behind the backbone is a 400G-ready DWDM infrastructure that offers at least three diverse routes into major locations, 40% utilization during peak hours and sub-3ms core latency.
On-net access across our nationwide footprint. Extend your reach into 60+ facilities without new builds or new carrier relationships.
