Dark Fiber

It's All About Dark Fiber

Big bandwidth users rely on the NEF as one of the nation’s leading experts in dark fiber and high cap optical services to bring smart solutions and optimal pricing on network services and colocation.

For nearly a decade NEF has shed light on dark fiber:

Access to Carriers

Industry consolidation has brought about a limited number of carriers that offer to lease dark fiber. Given the growing scarcity, it becomes critical to have a trusted advisor who knows whom to contact to secure dark fiber. NEF works with hundreds of carriers nationwide and leverages existing relationships with the carriers to bring you a full range of connectivity options, including dark fiber.

Often NEF can find and get access to dark fiber where others can't, with one of the most comprehensive network databases in the industry.  FiberLocator® has nearly 200 network providers in 120+ metropolitan areas and currently maps over 150,000 lit buildings and carrier PoPs plus another 1400 data centers.
