On this page is a collection of links to maps of US longhaul and intra-regional fiber networks. Maps are links to material on company websites wherever possible. Fiber may be owned or leased via long term IRU. To be on this list, a provider should provide intercity transport services between at least 5 states. I realize 5 is arbitrary, but at the moment it seems to be a reasonable number. Maps for pure metro and smaller regional providers will be collected on another page at some point.

Because these are links to external sites, they may get broken from time to time when pages are moved, updated, or simply deleted. This list will be maintained but I can do a better job if readers help out. So if you see a broken link please leave a comment or email the webmaster so I can fix it promptly. If you know of a network that should be here but has mysteriously slipped past my nets, please leave a comment – this is meant to be an inclusive list, not an exclusive one.
BT Global Services added thanks to reader input
Added Nuvox map, fixed Integra Telecom map, and moved Savvis to the global maps page.
Hi Rob,
My company provides transport services across the USA and we are in over 30 states. The fiber is Level 3 leased fiber on an IRU and was built by the National LabmdaRail. Darkstrand then purchased 50% of the network capacity with the exclusive rights to commercialize it. I was wondering if our network would qualify to be posed on this page.
Thanks,

Indeed, my apologies for the omission, I forgot about darkstrand. Of course, you guys have been quiet lately…
Hi Rob,
This is great information, thanks a lot.Can you include C&W network info too?
What about adding Hurricane Electric?
I have added HE now to both the international and US maps pages, thanks for the suggestion!
This page would serve better being in Wikipedia, I think.
Perhaps we should just move everything to the biggest sites and fold up shop!
Ah well, wikipedia has various lists of backbones and cables already, I just haven’t found them to be as focused on one idea.
The Lightower fiber map link is broken, we have recently revamped our site and this is perhaps the reason…in any event, we are up and running now if you wouldn’t mind fixing, thanks!
Thanks Jennifer, I have updated the link.
