"Lightpath, an all-fiber, infrastructure-based connectivity provider that is revolutionizing how organizations connect to their digital destinations, announced the expansion of its AI-grade network in Greater Columbus, Ohio. This latest project adds approximately 150 route miles of high-density fiber to the initial network announced earlier this year, more than doubling Lightpath's fiber footprint across the region. This success-based expansion reinforces Lightpath's growing presence in the Midwest and its strategy to deliver the next generation of network infrastructure purpose-built for AI-driven workloads."
"Lightpath's Greater Columbus network builds on their recent announcements in Phoenix and Eastern Pennsylvania as well as its acquisition of a unique, low latency, high-count route between NYC and Ashburn, VA, advancing the company's nationwide initiative to interconnect key AI and hyperscale corridors. The expanded network combines new underground, multi-conduit systems with high-count fiber capacity designed to support both metro and regional long-haul applications."
