Fibertech adds 80 miles to Delaware fiber-optic network

Fiber-optic network services provider Fibertech Networks has announced plans to expand its network in Delaware. The move is in line with the company’s recent advancements in network construction in markets like Cincinnati, Toledo, Dayton, Cleveland, and Akron.

Fibertech will grow its existing 160-mile network in Wilmington, DE, by over 80 miles, moving into Georgetown and Dover. It will provide both optical and dark fiber broadband options to the businesses in the region. Fibertech’s services portfolio includes multi-point and point-to-point Ethernet services (10 Mbps to 100 Gbps), private line connections (T1 to OC-192), DWDM, and fast communication collocation between two given locations.

The company also has plans to lease strands of fiber to other telecommunications carriers.

“This expansion is based on our success in signing up new customers and is another indication that our business growth continues to exceed expectations,” said Chairman and CEO John K. Purcell. “The expansion of our Delaware network ensures businesses have cost-effective alternatives for their critical bandwidth applications. We believe that the presence of our network and services will also help enhance economic development initiatives in its capital city and throughout the state of Delaware.”

Fibertech Networks operates in close to 23 markets and has over 9000 miles of metro network infrastructure.
