Lightpath's latest network expansion in Miami includes adding eight new data centers for 12 on-net data centers by the end of 2024. Lightpath will offer RapidPath dark fiber between Miami data centers, with pre-spliced inter-data center fiber spans ready for rapid deployment. Additionally, the company is building a new, 15-mile expansion of high-fiber count, subterranean network toward North Miami Beach and west to Miami Gardens.
However, dark fiber is only one of many services that Miami area customers can get from Lightpath.
Lightpath offers its fiber connectivity solutions to Miami-area customers such as enterprises, hyperscalers, governments, educators, and carriers. Area customers can connect anywhere on the Lightpath Network throughout New York Metro and Boston Metro, as well as the data center-rich region around Ashburn, VA. Lightpath currently offers connectivity to over 140 data centers, seven cable landing stations, and direct connectivity to all major cloud service providers at various interconnect locations.
"Lightpath is seeing increased demand in the Miami region for data center connectivity, both data center to data center and commercial buildings to data centers,” said Chris Morley, CEO of Lightpath. “Both types of demand are driven by the surge in artificial intelligence (AI) and the need for direct connectivity to cloud providers.”
