Lumos Networks Corp (LMOS) CEO Timothy Blitz says one of the key components of the company’s growth strategy will be to expand its enterprise network to more buildings in its footprint, including data centers. Currently, he says Lumos is connected to nearly 1,500 on-net buildings and 14 commercial data centers.
“In early July, we announced our connection into the Peak 10 data center in Richmond, Virginia. We recently released our near-net building list of 15,000 buildings that are within a half-mile of our fiber network — to which we can easily extend fiber at the request of our partner on behalf of their customer,” Blitz says. “We believe that this formalized building list can help to accelerate the progress of our carrier end-user strategy.”

Blitz adds that the primary driver for Lumos’ growth will be fiber to the cell. And, he says he also sees an opportunity to grow the company’s end-user channel as part of its partner channel program.
“Simply, we offer our network to their partner’s customers,” Blitz says.
