Uniti also announced that it will launch its Open Line System on two new routes by the end of 2022. One route will provide an express path from Dallas, TX to Atlanta, GA with the ability to drop traffic to key data centers in Little Rock, AR, Memphis, TN, Nashville, TN and Chattanooga, TN. Additionally, Uniti will deploy a new system from Atlanta, GA to Ashburn, VA with data center connectivity in Charlotte, NC, Raleigh, NC, Richmond, VA and Norfolk, VA. These new systems will support 100G, 400G and multi-terabit add-drop capability in each market.
Uniti plans to deploy similar systems along other high-demand, long-haul routes across its 128,000 fiber route mile national network over the next several quarters.
“We are extremely proud of our team’s success in delivering these new systems throughout Florida, offering even more scalable and secure long-haul connectivity solutions to Latin America,” said Tom Vito, Vice President Strategy & Business Development at Uniti. “Additionally, extending our network reach with the Dallas to Atlanta and Atlanta to Ashburn paths enables Uniti to serve the capacity needs on two of the highest demand routes in the U.S.”
