At Lumen, we’re advancing one of the most significant network expansions in recent years, helping you move faster, scale smarter and stay ahead in a digital-first economy. Backed by a planned $100+ million investment in our network infrastructure, we’re strengthening regional foundations and expanding high-capacity transport to support the growing demands of AI, cloud and edge applications.

Recent upgrades to high-demand wavelength routes have added nearly 1.26 petabytes of new capacity, giving you the performance and reach needed to modernize operations and unlock new opportunities.

This expansion directly enhances three core offerings, designed to help you accelerate outcomes and improve your digital experience:

• Ethernet Services: Deliver low latency connectivity to cloud, edge and colocation environments, ideal for streamlining data flows and consolidating traffic across locations. With speeds up to 400G, you can connect whether you are in the data center or on premises.
• Wavelength Solutions: Provide massive throughput for real-time data movement, supporting AI workloads, decoupled storage and compute architectures. And this is only the start, as we continue to extend capacity and reach across more routes.
• Network-as-a-Service (NaaS): Put the power of choice in your hands with agile provisioning, on-demand scaling and flexible bandwidth control. This investment expands the footprint for spinning services up or down as needed, giving you more ways to adapt to changing workloads, manage costs and pursue new opportunities.

With the help of our advanced networking solutions, you can scale fast, adapt quickly and maximize your AI and cloud investments.
