Beacon Dark Fiber

OSHEAN provides members with access to dark fiber through Master Service Agreements held with several fiber vendors, which allows our members to receive greater bandwidth for reduced costs. For members connecting to dark fiber, the OSHEAN staff act as the project manager for installation and implementation and provide technical support. Dark fiber enables connectivity to the NEREN network, allowing members to collaborate and take advantage of regional services and applications.
