U.S.”

- “At a time when connectivity is the lifeline for education, healthcare, and public safety, Zayo is taking decisive steps to close the digital divide and bring robust connectivity to underserved
communities. We commend Ciena’s plans to expand local manufacturing and their continued work to accelerate the roll-out of high-speed connectivity for unserved and underserved populations across
America."

- “We are dedicated to making high-speed fiber connectivity available across the state of Maryland, closing the digital divide to deliver equal opportunities for all. Part of achieving this goal
is to use best-in-class technology, something that Ciena has proven to deliver at the highest levels across the globe. We commend Ciena for their investment in the development of U.S. products
which meet the Buy America guidelines required for BEAD funding. This will support our efforts to address the lack of broadband connectivity in under-connected areas.”
