Adding Eight On-Net Data Centers, RapidPath Quick Dark Fiber Deployment Between Data Centers in Five Days, and 15-Miles of Fiber Network Expansion
New York and Miami, October 29, 2024 – Lightpath, an all-fiber, infrastructure-based connectivity provider that is revolutionizing how organizations connect to their digital destinations, announced it is continuing its aggressive expansion in the Greater Miami region by adding connectivity to eight new data centers, adding 15-miles of new fiber network, and introducing a new RapidPath dark fiber service to area data centers.
Lightpath’s latest network expansion in the Miami area includes adding eight new data centers to its network, for a total of 12 on-net data centers by the end of 2024. Lightpath will be offering RapidPath dark fiber between Miami data centers, with pre-spliced inter-data center fiber spans ready for ultra-fast deployment. In addition, the company is building a new, 15-mile expansion of high-fiber count, subterranean network toward North Miami Beach and west to Miami Gardens.

“Lightpath is seeing increased demand in the Miami region for data center connectivity, both data center to data center, and commercial buildings to data centers. Both types of demand are being driven by the surge in artificial intelligence (AI) and the need for direct connectivity to cloud providers,” stated Chris Morley, CEO of Lightpath. “Our new RapidPath service is just another way that Lightpath is meeting the evolving demands of hyperscalers and other large organizations who need ways to scale quickly to meet the dynamics of the market.”
