LOUISVILLE, Colo. – June 13, 2012 – Zayo Group announces it has obtained Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) MEF 9 and MEF 14 certification.  The Metro Ethernet Forum is an organization responsible for accelerating the adopting of Carrier class Ethernet networks and services.  Zayo has been a member of MEF and recently obtained certification.
 
MEF certification is the globally recognized and trusted reference for Carrier Ethernet services standardization, and certification is only awarded following high marks on sets of tests regarding service functionality and service performance.
