Dark Fiber

See why our Dark Fiber shines a little brighter.

More control. Greater security. Extra peace of mind.

Network operators and carriers have been wise to the value of high-bandwidth, scalable dark fiber for decades. More recently, businesses have begun looking to dark fiber to future-proof their own data and technology initiatives, attracted by the low latency and scalable bandwidth capabilities these networks offer. Today, professional service firms, healthcare systems, government organizations, and educational institutions are all turning to the dark side for their networking needs.

When it comes to building custom fiber networks, no one else has our construction background, so no one else knows what we know—or has our experience, know-how, and drive. And we’ve proven it for the last 20 years.

As a leading provider of fiber optic infrastructure in some of the country’s most rapidly growing metro areas, we design, build, monitor, and maintain our network to ensure even your most mission-critical applications don’t miss a beat.

What I liked about FiberLight was that the network is monitored constantly. None of the competition seemed to have that.

With FiberLight’s Dark Fiber services, we were able to cut our Internet access fees by at least 50%, compared to several carriers.
