Dark Fiber networks play an extremely critical role in acting as a backbone network for providing high speed data networking solutions compared to other High latency networking techniques. And therefore, Dark Fiber networks are swiftly reaching newer locations, facilitating super-fast and low latency networking solutions, especially for high-end customers who really care for every second of delay.

The latest news from Dark Fiber sector is that a  major Dark Fiber provider, Lexent Metro Connect has expressed its plans to build Dark Fiber network across Telx facility. According to news reports, 100 Delawanna will expand upon Lexent’s fiber routes, so that financial exchanges in Northern New Jersey will eventually be able to utilize high-speed networking solutions, once the dark fiber gets laid off.

Dark fiber network expansion to Telx makes an absolute sense as High-end Telx customers are currently deprived of low latency routing solutions to other trading houses and financial exchanges across New York metro area and Northern New Jersey. Network establishment of Dark Fiber will certainly help solving network latency issues.

Ray Chance, CEO of Lexent Metro Connect said…

“The need for fast connectivity in the financial community has continued to drive our New Jersey Network expansion in the first half of 2010. It’s our goal to provide the right connections at fast speeds to our customers concerned with latency.

With direct access into Telx’s Clifton facility, the financial networks colocated there will be able to connect to hundreds of carriers, business exchanges and enterprises, with a single cross-connect, for fast, dark fiber access into key financial hubs.”
