About Our Network

Bandwidth bottlenecks can slow data traffic, sometimes at the last mile. This is because most fiber optic networks do not extend all the way to the businesses in need of service. Southern Telecom provides metro dark fiber that can deliver this last mile to ensure fast connections between you and your customers in the Southeast.

Southern Telecom has 1,500 route miles installed in the Southeast. We will also construct spurs off this route to support many of the nearby tier II-plus cities. We provide HVAC, power, and other custom energy solutions for optronics at our operation hubs and in-line amplification sites (ILAs) on the long-haul routes and points of presence (POPs) in the metro areas supporting the metro fiber rings.

Alabama

In Montgomery and Birmingham, Southern Telecom operates the cities' largest carrier-neutral colocation hotels.

Lauderdale and Miami and up the Florida West Coast through Ft. Myers and Tampa to Orlando and back to Daytona Beach. This dark fiber route passes through six percent of the U.S. population and offers connectivity to international traffic via other carriers' Latin American submarine cables.
