Zayo Completes Crown Castle Fiber Acquisition

WASHINGTON, May 4, 2026 – Digital infrastructure provider Zayo completed its acquisition of Crown Castle’s fiber business on Friday, expanding its fiber footprint across U.S. metro markets.

Crown Castle said in 2025 it would sell its fiber and small cell businesses in an $8.5 billion deal as part of a shift to focus on its tower operations.

Zayo said the acquisition adds approximately 90,000 route miles and 40,000 on-net enterprise locations to its network. Following the acquisition, the company’s network spans about 224,000 route miles across North America.
