FiberLight Expands Fiber Optic Network In Tampa To Serve Telecom Carriers And Wireless Customers
Alpharetta, GA -- 2/6/2008
FiberLight LLC, a provider of fiber based connectivity solutions for businesses and carriers, announced that it has completed the 106.51 mile expansion of its fiber optic network throughout the Lakeland, St. Petersburg, Largo and Clearwater area of the Tampa metro. This significant expansion complements the existing 103 miles of fiber throughout the Tampa market now totaling 209.51 route miles and 47,418.72 fiber miles. FiberLight's expertise and knowledge of metro networks as well as its breadth of experience in delivering sophisticated dark fiber, WDM, Metro Ethernet and SONET networks to some of the largest telecommunications customers in the nation makes FiberLight the choice supplier of network infrastructure.
“FiberLight's investment in expanding its network in the greater Tampa market, specifically adding significant network into Lakeland, St. Petersburg, Largo and Clearwater will provide the businesses there with network diversity and alternatives to the incumbent LEC,” said Judd Carothers, Vice President for FiberLight. As the demand for business continuity evolves, many companies want a multi-carrier approach for N+1 redundancy and the FiberLight Tampa network expansion now provides these companies greater options.
FiberLight has a strong reputation for delivering dark fiber, wavelength private networks, Metro Ethernet and SONET services to the Carrier, Enhanced Service Provider and Fortune 500 businesses that reduce a customer's overall network operating expense and deliver greater scalability and flexibility.
