The company operates a 300 route mile fiber optic network in the New York City metropolitan area that connects mobile phone macrosites, small cells and Wi-Fi nodes to carriers and other core network facilities.[2] HistoryZenFi was founded in 2014 in New York City.[3] The company's goal was to help connect fiber networks to wireless distributed antenna systems (DAS), which provide Internet access inside properties, in order to extend mobile phone networks.[4] In May 2015, ZenFi established a connection at 325 Hudson, a well known data center in Manhattan.[5] In May 2016, the company expanded its network to The Bronx, New York City's northernmost borough.[6] In January 2017, the company partnered with NY Metro service provider Cross River Fiber to launch a portal to streamline the dark and lit fiber ordering process for data center interconnection (DCI).[7] In May 2017, the company completed fiber build-outs at carrier hotel (colocation facility) operator ColoGuard’s CGNY1 Brooklyn data center, and at 32 Avenue of the Americas in Manhattan, also known as the AT&T Building.[1] The company also announced that its network at the time included 200 route miles of fiber in the five boroughs and New Jersey.[8] By Spring 2018, the company was reportedly operating over 300 route miles of fiber.[2] In April 2018, ZenFi announced it was merging with fellow fiber network provider Cross River Fiber, and that the new combined company's fiber network would be 700 route miles long.[9] NetworkThe company's 300 route mile metro fiber optic network connects to eight major carrier hotels in New York City, and 19 data centers in New Jersey.[4] The company splits its network into two parts that it calls the Access and Express Networks.[4] The Express Network is the company's core network, which links data centers, carrier hotels and businesses to ZenFi's Access Network. The Access Network supports wireless interconnections and collocations for bandwidth-intensive applications such as Internet of things (IoT) and 5th generational wireless systems 5G.[10] The company also manages the ZenCross Connect (zXC), an online portal that allows ZenFi and Cross River Fiber to provide preprovisioned, on-demand dark and lit fiber services over its network.[7] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://channelvisionmag.com/zenfi-expands-dark-fiber-footprint-nyc/ |title=ZenFi Expands Dark Fiber Footprint in NYC |website=channelvisionmag.com |date=2017-05-17 |accessdate=2018-05-08}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/fifthgenmedia/connectedrealestate_vol2issue1/index.php?startid=96#/34 |title=On Street Corners And In Skyscrapers |website=nxtbook.com |date=|accessdate=2018-05-08}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.telecomramblings.com/2015/09/industry-spotlight-zenfis-ray-la-chance-on-wiring-nyc-for-mobile/ |title=Industry Spotlight: ZenFi's Ray La Chance on Wiring NYC For Mobile |website=telecomramblings.com |date=2015-09-09 |accessdate=2018-05-08}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.construction-today.com/sections/focus/2911-zenfi-networks |title=ZenFi Networks |website=construction-today.com |date=2016-11-28 |accessdate=2018-05-08}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://channelvisionmag.com/zenfi-moves-into-325-hudson/|title=ZenFi Moves Into 325 Hudson |website=channelvisionmag.com |date=2015-05-20 |accessdate=2018-05-08}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://newyorkcitywired.com/zenfi-expands-connection-dark-fiber-from-manhattan-to-the-bronx/ |title=ZenFi Expands Dark Fiber Connection From Manhattan To The Bronx |website=newyorkcitywired.com |date=2016-05-11 |accessdate=2018-05-08}} 7. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://www.fiercetelecom.com/telecom/cross-river-fiber-zenfi-create-self-service-cross-connect-portal-furthers-data-center |title=Cross River Fiber, ZenFi create self-service cross-connect portal |website=fiercetelecom.com |date=2017-01-26 |accessdate=2018-05-08}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.rcrwireless.com/20170526/business/20170526businesszenfi-fiber-networks-tag17 |title=Wireless evolution depends on dense, future-looking fiber networks|website=rcrwireless.com |date=2017-05-26 |accessdate=2018-05-08}} 9. ^{{cite web|url= http://www.lightwaveonline.com/articles/2018/04/ny-nj-fiber-network-service-providers-zenfi-networks-cross-river-fiber-to-merge.html |title=NY/NJ fiber network service providers ZenFi Networks, Cross River Fiber to merge |website=lightwaveonline.com |date=2018-04-24 |accessdate=2018-05-08}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.rcrwireless.com/20161109/carriers/zenfi-dark-fiber-tag31 |title=ZenFi builds dark fiber spider web for 5G across five boroughs of NYC |website=rcrwireless.com |date=2016-11-09 |accessdate=2018-05-08}} External links
