Some FTTH, managed services, and some data center M&A:
Fastwyre is expanding its FTTH reach in two vastly different parts of the US. In Missouri they announced an expansion into Sedalia and La Monte, following up on an early buildout in Warrensburg. Meanwhile, they won two grants totaling $70M to build out fiber in Alaska. The project is expected to bring fiber to some 3,000 people and 7 businesses in and around Nome, way out on the Bering Strait looking out at Siberia.
Connectbase has a new adherent to its data ecosystem from the north. The Canadian metro provider Beanfield Technologies has signed onto the company’s Connected World platform. Beanfield’s reach within Toronto, Montrea, and Vancouver will help flesh out Connectbase’s Canadian last mile options.
