ZEN INTERNET EXPANDS >>>
TO LEEDS
Leading UK ISP Zen Internet has reached the next stage in its network expansion by opening a new Point of Presence (PoP) in Leeds. The new PoP will ensure that Zen’s customer bandwidth and service demands continue to be met in a highly resilient way and ahead of demand.
The additional location means that there is a new link to London that is completely separate from the existing Zen network.
TAs part of this network expansion, Imtech Telecom supplied Juniper Networks T-series routers into Zen’s new PoP. T-series routing platforms are designed to provide high-performance, scalable and highly reliable IP/MPLS-optimised core transport, providing service providers such as Zen Internet with best-in-class quality of service able to support a comprehensive range of data, video and voice services.
“A major benefit of the Leeds site is that it is close enough to existing Zen sites in Rochdale and Manchester to allow dark fibre links directly between sites, leading to virtually unlimited bandwidth growth,” explains David Wylie, Principal Engineer, Zen Internet.
