What is Dark Fiber?

Dark fiber is inactive fiber-optic infrastructure which enterprise customers can lease.  Rather than being maintained and operated by Hunter, the enterprise customer uses their own equipment to activate and maintain the use of the fiber network. Dark fiber gives enterprise customers increased reliability, security, flexibility, scalability, and savings on building their own infrastructure. At Hunter, we pride ourselves in using dark fiber for our enterprise customers. By using dark fiber contracted within the indefeasible rights of use (IRUs), we provide you with a more secure network.
