Lightpath's Expansive Fiber Network Now Spans More Than 8,000 Locations
Continued Expansion of One of the Country's Largest Metro Area Fiber Networks Ensures Customers Can Connect Where Business Needs Demand
(firmenpresse) - JERICHO, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 06/14/16 -- Lightpath, a market leader in Ethernet-based communication solutions for New York metropolitan area businesses, today announced that its ubiquitous fiber network now spans more than 8,000 lit locations and 6,500 route miles. As businesses in the New York metro area expand, they need connectivity to new locations, dozens of data centers and key vertical-specific destinations. Lightpath's continued network growth supports these increased demands, introducing the flexibility and performance of fiber to areas that have traditionally been underserved by aging networks.
"More and more of our customers are running their businesses from the cloud, resulting in the most stringent reliability and bandwidth needs. Others are exploring how ultra-high bandwidth connectivity can help them further evolve business opportunities in the region," said Dave Pistacchio, president, Lightpath. "Lightpath is bringing fiber to areas that other providers can't, providing a far-reaching fast track for data throughout the New York metro area. Our network is where businesses need to be, delivering the services and speed that are critical to meeting changing business demands."
Business bandwidth needs are increasing exponentially, putting unprecedented demand on the networks that support them. Lightpath's 100 percent fiber network gives healthcare, media, government, education and financial organizations the freedom to develop a connectivity strategy without restraints. As a result, these organizations can develop winning approaches that address specific business needs and achieve increasingly ambitious goals.
"The greater New York City area is the country's largest, densest, and among the most competitive markets for fiber-based network services," said Brian Washburn, an analyst with Current Analysis. "Lightpath began offering high-performance Ethernet over fiber across the market over 10 years ago. This latest customer growth milestone again proves out the company's ongoing commitment to invest in a dense fiber footprint that connects enterprise locations to each other and to destinations including data centers, cloud services and exchanges."
