LSC Launches 60-Mile Dark Fiber Network in Las Vegas

Light Source Communications (LSC), a leading provider of secure, scalable, reliable connectivity on state-of-the-art dark fiber networks, announces its newest network in Las Vegas, Nevada, a critical 60-mile route bringing hyperconnectivity to one of the country’s fastest-growing data center markets. This new network build is the third LSC has commenced in less than a year, joining projects in Phoenix, Arizona, and Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The new route will feature one ring encompassing four cities and multiple data centers in the Las Vegas metropolitan area, which combined with Reno, Nevada, is projected to see significant growth in data center capacity. LSC has already secured two major global hyperscalers as anchor tenants on the Las Vegas route, with more set to join in the future.

The network will help to fill a substantial connectivity gap in the region. Las Vegas is a tier 2 market currently underserved for Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning and other high-performance computing (HPC) applications for hyperscalers and other enterprise customers.

“We’re thrilled to continue executing our ambitious growth plan and help meet the high demands for connectivity in the Las Vegas area,” said Pete Empie Sr., CSO and President of LSC. “We are witnessing a seismic shift across industries with the growth of AI and other HPC technologies. Hyperscalers and enterprises alike require high-capacity, low-latency connectivity to compete in today’s global economy, and we are proud to support them with customized solutions through our state-of-the-art dark fiber networks.”

Construction on the Las Vegas route is underway, with design/engineering complete and permitting substantially complete. LSC expects to finish construction by the end of 2025. It will be the third major market project anchored by a hyperscale tenant that LSC anticipates completing by the end of this year, as work on the Phoenix route and the Tulsa route remains on track. The Phoenix network will encompass 300+ miles and 15 rings. LSC is the first network provider to build into the new Edged Phoenix data center purpose-built for ultra-efficient AI model training and inference in Mesa, Arizona, located less than 25 miles from downtown Phoenix. In Tulsa, LSC is adding 80 miles of new fiber to its existing 50-mile network. The networks will be entirely underground, delivering the greatest reliability and network security possible through a high fiber count and conduit system.

LSC is a carrier neutral, owner-operator of networks serving enterprises throughout the U.S. For more information about LSC, visit lscfiber.com.
