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.

    Added Pangaea Networks’ NY/NJ map. I have made an exception given that there is no map currently to link to on their own site, and hosted it on TelecomRamblings with permission.
