Are you looking to connect your organization with a reliable fiber infrastructure? Fatbeam partners with education, government organizations, and businesses to help you better serve your community by expanding your infrastructure possibilities while preserving the resources you are trusted to manage. Today we are going to explore the benefits of a lit fiber infrastructure.

Advantages Of Lit Fiber

Lit fiber is a convenient option for fiber-based connectivity. The service provider manages the installation, operation, and connectivity, giving you access to the high-speed and reliable service you need without worrying about managing any part of the system. 

Because service providers manage lit fiber, these networks are ready for you to plug and play without a long ramp-up period. In addition, the service provider takes over the liability of managing the connectivity for you, so you can focus on doing what you do best – running your business. 

And another benefit of lit fiber networks is that they tend to have broader coverage, including rural areas, as the Federal Government continues to invest in broadband expansion projects.

If you need more bandwidth, lit fiber capacities continue to grow, currently reaching above 100 Gbps. It is also more affordable than dark fiber because your service provider handles everything for one monthly fee, including installation, equipment maintenance, and any upgrades, freeing you from having to manage your fiber connectivity. 

The Fatbeam Advantage

It is important that you partner with a service provider that offers a flexible lit fiber network that has both the transport connectivity and the performance capability your organization or business will need. Fatbeam lit fiber service uses dedicated fiber strands to connect each of the locations where you operate. Designed to cater to customers who value ease of access and flexibility, Fatbeam lights the fiber and provides lit connections with equipment administered by Fatbeam to give you the peace of mind to focus on your business goals. 

Fatbeam lit fiber provides for point-to-point (P2P) or point-to-multipoint (P2M) configurations, and our fiber optic infrastructure supports between 1G and 400G lit transport capacity. You are guaranteed high-performing network functionality. You select your speed, and Fatbeam provides and protects the electronics needed to light the fiber and deliver the bandwidth you need. It doesn’t get any easier than that. 

Lit fiber networks are a cost-effective and efficient solution to accelerating the online experience for your employees and customers. If your organization is smaller and you do not have the fully-fledged IT teams that your larger competitors do, then Fatbeam’s lit fiber service is the right choice to give you an edge in your field. Lit fiber networks are ultra-reliable and secure, so you won’t have to worry about anything other than running and growing your organization.
