Wyyerd Group has selected Colo Atl for its premium data centre and interconnection services and to serve as a strategic location and a primary hub for Wyyerd Connect.

Colo Atl, which was acquired by American Tower in April 2019, is a provider of carrier-neutral colocation, data centre and interconnection services at 55 Marietta Street in Atlanta. Wyyerd Connect is the operating entity within Wyyerd Group that serves enterprises, carriers, government entities, non-profits and educational organisations with fibre-optic-based services.

"We are excited about our partnership with Colo Atl, a top-notch carrier-neutral interconnection and data centre facility in the local Atlanta market," said Chad Allen, general manager for the Georgia market at Wyyerd Connect.

"Colo Atl's facility allows us to work closely with our carrier customers and gives us many strategic options for our wholesale markets. We have the unique ability to connect directly with many of our large enterprise customers - with no monthly recurring cross connect fees in its Meet-Me-Area. This allows us many opportunities to serve our customers and scale to their continued growth."    

Wyyerd Connect's network in the Georgia market is anchored in Clayton County and Wyyerd Connect is actively investing and expanding its 100% fibre network to reach new buildings throughout Clayton County and beyond.

Wyyerd Connect's fibre-optic network offers vastly superior speed, scalability and performance to customers, all at price points that are competitive with much older, slower competitor networks.

"As Wyyerd Connect aggressively invests in expanding its fibre network to bring fibre to many more buildings and areas in Georgia, we are honoured to welcome the company to our facility - and as one of our newest Colo Atl family members," added John Ghirardelli, general manager for Colo Atl.

"Colo Atl is proud to serve as an integral partner in enabling Wyyerd Connect's fibre-optic network connectivity globally and in supporting its expansion efforts locally, and scaling with the company to meet their growing capacity needs."
