Hi, I am helping a carrier on a new fiber build. Trying to determine where to collocate in this building. There is no central meet-me room, but instead there are three 'gangs' - landlord and two major colo providers. [] Any insight on the best provider in this facility would be appreciated.

Last Week's Canadian Fiber Cut

Did we ever get any resolution on why this was such a big outage? Appears there were two fiber cuts. Were the fibers damaged in the same conduit? Is this a collapsed ring scenario? http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/concerns-about-backup-bell-outage-1.4239064 Roderick Beck

How well does this service work? I understand it usually involves point-to-multipoint Switched Ethernet with VLANs and resold IX ports. Sounds like a service for ISP that would like to peer, but have relatively small volumes for peering purposes or lopsided volumes. Roderick Beck Director of

Agreed, however over the next 50 to 100 years you might see a big migration North as temperature continue rising and continuous shipping via the Northern passage. The Quintillion cable is really being built to link Asia and Europe via an ultra low latency path. Attaching fiber spurs to those

I think the Artic Fiber project is designed to alleviate that problem in the Northwest. It was incorporated into a larger project to connect the three continents. I know one of the founders, Mike Cunningham.

Well, imagine what happens when you have a body of water like Lake Ontario separating the key hubs on each side of the border, 151 Front Street and 350 Main Street. The fiber is probably stacked parallel around the lake and at certain points is collapsed into one right of way. - R.

Hi Eric, Allstream fiber goes counterclockwise from Toronto to Buffalo along the lake. Just like the rest of them. And at several places all these sysgtems are probably in the same conduit. Finally, all fiber is exhausted Toronto/Buffalo. Existing players could not sell if they wanted to
