Fiber Network
Interested in discussing business opportunities that complement your footprint?
MBC owns and operates over 2,000 miles of open-access fiber optic network in 31 counties in Southern Virginia. MBC owns the fiber sheath, the colocation facilities, and the electronics. MBC uses Ciena 6500 for TDM; Ciena Z-Series platform and Accedian for Layer 2 Ethernet Transport Network; and Infinera DTN for our 400Gb/s wavelength network. MBC’s DTN-X system at current configuration transports 1.2 Terabits per second and has capabilities to grow to 9.6 Terabits per second of transport capacity on a single pair of fiber. The FLEX-ILS technology deployed on the DTN-X system provides MBC a great deal of flexibility to grow high speed connections to Northern Virginia, the Subsea Cable systems in Virginia Beach, and throughout the Southern Virginia region.
