Metro Fiber Maps: Great Plains

A collection of metro fiber maps for networks in the general reagion of the Great Plains.  More specifically, the states of Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota.  Yes, that’s quite a swath of territory isn’t it?  Some might not call Arkansas part of the great plains, but I didn’t have anywhere else to put it at the moment.  The population throughout this region is not dense and there aren’t really all that many metro areas with competitive fiber maps, so a single page makes sense for now.   I should note there are also the regional fiber providers in each state who probably have metro assets as well.

Company Maps Lit/Dark Comments
American Fiber Systems Kansas City, Minneapolis/St.Paul both
EasyTel Tulsa both
Level 3 Little Rock, Kansas City, Minneapolis, Omaha, St.Louis, Wichita both
Pinpoint Networks Omaha both
Zayo Minneapolis/St.Paul both
Cogent Minneapolis, Kansas City, St.Louis lit on-net buildings tool
Paetec Minneapolis, Kansas City, Omaha, Cedar Rapids, Omaha lit former McLeod fiber
TW Telecom Kansas City, Minneapolis, St.Louis, Little Rock, Tulsa both
XO Minneapolis, St.Louis both

All links are to material offered on the websites of the company operating the fiber, I do not usually host them locally and generally will not link to third party maps – not that there are many of those.  Where available, links to on-net building lists are also given.

Additional maps of metro fiber networks that ought to be on this list are very welcome, as are corrections to the above links. Please just leave a comment below or send an email to info@telecomramblings.com.
