Uniti's Strategic Network Densification Generates New Enterprise and Wholesale Opportunities
April 11 2023 - 8:00AM
Uniti Group Inc. (“Uniti” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: UNIT)
announced today the continued strategic densification of its
best-in-class fiber network within several key Southeastern metro
markets, providing advanced connectivity solutions to business
communities and greater local access opportunities for wholesale
customers.
Uniti’s state-of-the-art network, spanning
135,000 route miles and 8 million strand miles of fiber across the
U.S., provides world-class communication solutions to enterprise
customers, enabling local business communities to fuel continued
growth and economic development. The Company also allows carriers,
ISPs, content networks and other wholesale customers to leverage
its sizable network to effortlessly expand their reach into
desirable markets, while also helping them acquire new customers
and better serve existing ones.
The enterprise markets in which Uniti is
currently executing its strategic densification plans include
Augusta and Columbus, Georgia; Birmingham, Huntsville, Montgomery
and Tuscaloosa, Alabama; and Shreveport and Monroe, Louisiana. Each
of these existing Uniti metro areas offers a rich concentration of
enterprise, medical, financial, government and education customers,
making them attractive targets for growth. Uniti plans additional
network densification throughout its Southeast footprint in
2023.
“Uniti’s continued strategic network
densification, particularly within our Southeast markets where our
brand is already solidly established, will create significant
advantages for our enterprise and wholesale customers who continue
to face an increasingly competitive environment, with growing
bandwidth demands, evolving security threats and aging
infrastructure. I’m excited that Uniti is providing the solutions
that will help organizations within these communities compete more
effectively,” said Senior Vice President and Chief Development
Officer Cathy De La Garza.
