October 12 2022 - 4:15PM
Uniti Group Inc. (“Uniti”) (Nasdaq: UNIT) announced today it will
add two new lit routes to its state-of-the-art fiber network in
2023, with presale of 100G and 400G wavelength services and
multiple-terabit Private Wave Channel spectrum services now
available.
The new routes include Dallas to Atlanta and
Atlanta to Ashburn, VA, offering physically diverse on-ramps in
each location, including:
- 1950 N. Stemmons Fwy.,
Dallas, TX 75207
- 2323 Bryan St., Dallas, TX
75201
- 250 Williams St. NW,
Atlanta, GA 30303
- 56 Marietta St. NW,
Atlanta, GA 30303

D.C. 20005
- 21715 Filigree Ct.,
Ashburn, VA 20147
Uniti’s new routes provide multi-terabit
add-drop capability to key markets including Little
Rock (15707 Chenal Pkwy.), Memphis (4005
S. Mendenhall Rd.), Nashville (211 Commerce St.),
Charlotte (113 N. Meyers St.),
Raleigh (5301 Departure Dr.), and
Richmond (6000 Technology Blvd.).
With Uniti’s spectrum solution, Private Wave
Channel, customers can purchase their own transponders in order to
manage the ever-changing costs associated with the technology
evolutions in photonics. Uniti’s new Open Line System leverages the
latest optical advancements to support Flex-Grid Technology across
both C- and L-Bands. These advancements provide seamless support
for 100G and 400G wavelength services and multiple-terabit Private
Wave Channel spectrum services, including adding advanced
monitoring capabilities while doubling overall system capacity
compared to older C-Band only systems.
These new lit routes follow Uniti’s launch of
its Miami to Tampa route last year, which provides multiple-terabit
add-drop capability for a variety of Florida markets including
Orlando, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale and Daytona Beach. These
combined lit routes now allow Uniti’s customers to connect from
Dallas and Ashburn to key data centers and cable landing stations
throughout Florida.
“We’re proud to extend our Private Wave Channel
offering to more markets,” said Greg Ortyl, President of Wholesale
& Strategic Accounts at Uniti. “Although we already offer
wavelengths and dark fiber solutions as part of our current product
portfolio, we expect significant growth in Private Wave Channel as
it provides a high-capacity, flexible bandwidth solution with a
more efficient cost structure than traditional waves and less
operational complexity than dark fiber.”
