Uniti Connecting Key East Coast Cable Landing Stations
May 10 2022 - 8:00AM
Uniti Group Inc. (“Uniti”) (Nasdaq: UNIT) announced today that it
is connecting key east coast cable landing stations to large
carrier and internet points of presence in Miami, Atlanta and
Ashburn, VA. The deployment of the latest Open Line System will
connect Jacksonville to Atlanta and Jacksonville to Miami by way of
Boca Raton, allowing Uniti to offer 100G and 400G wavelengths and
multi-terabit spectrum services to its customers.
This deployment also creates a new contiguous
path from the cable landing stations in Jacksonville and Boca Raton
to landing stations in Virginia Beach and “Data Center Alley” in
Northern Virginia. Cable landing stations are key gateways where
sub-sea cables from Latin America, Africa and Europe “land” on US
soil, providing interconnectivity with fiber providers who can
deliver international traffic within the U.S.
“The cable landing stations have been a source
of tremendous connectivity growth between international carriers
and domestic networks here in the U.S. as new higher capacity and
lower latency subsea cables have arrived. We are excited to provide
our infrastructure solutions along the east coast connecting these
key landing stations to data centers,” said Tom Vito, Vice
President, Strategy & Business Development. “The demand we have
seen for 100G, 400G, and multi-terabit spectrum services at the
cable landing stations made it an easy decision to invest in next
generation technology to support our largest global customers’
bandwidth needs.”
