In April, the Pac-12 named Zayo as an official partner of the Conference and its three flagship championship events: the Pac-12 Football Championship Game, presented by 76®, and the Pac-12 Men's and Women's Basketball Tournaments, presented by New York Life. This partnership gave the Pac-12 permanent connectivity through Zayo's network to several sports venues, enabling more reliability and significant savings by removing on-site production and satellite truck rolls. Now, the Pac-12 produces 850 live events annually via the remote production model through Zayo's network.
Zayo's Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) network is used as the primary Internet Service Provider (ISP) at Pac-12 Networks' corporate headquarters. The DIA network is engineered to deliver a fiber-based network with reliability, security and performance. The Pac-12 also leverages Zayo's Wavelength Network to broadcast live events from all 12 universities in its conference.
"Zayo's partnership with the Pac-12 has helped connect collegiate sports fans in and out of the stadium to top-quality programming," said Kimberly Storin, Chief Marketing Officer at Zayo. "As organizations aim to deliver best-in-class digital experiences that exceed end customer expectations, we believe Zayo's partnership with the Pac-12 contributes to our position as a leading provider of network infrastructure, solutions and services for organizations across all industries."
