[outages] Zayo issue? 03.23.2016

[Andi Cook]

Just to clarify. Onvoy neither owns nor is owned by Zayo.  The facility that went down due to the massive snow storm and power outages in Denver belongs to Zayo, from which Onvoy buys transport and collocation. The collocation facility generator has plenty of capacity and is tested regularly, unfortunately the generator voltage regulator failed. The facility battery backup lasted for over 6 hours before depleting. To protect equipment and to enable a more certain return of service, Zayo facilitated a graceful shut down of equipment in the building. Power was restored via the primary generator about 90 minutes later and all equipment was carefully powered on to prevent damage and further outages. Services should have been fully restored yesterday evening.

Thank you.

Sorry, the outage has greatly increased my time pressure and I said it backwards.  Zayo owns Onvoy, and a bunch of others.  They share infrastructure in many places, outages for one are outages for many.

Last I checked, Zayo Group is publicly traded (NYSE:ZAYO)....

If any relation were there, I would guess Onvoy is a customer of theirs. They don't own them.

Onvoy, who owns Zayo and many other providers, is having a major outage due to power loss in Denver.  That's right, a major national carrier has insufficient generator capacity to sustain operations if the power goes out.  Ridiculous, but alas, true.
