About Us

Lexent Metro Connect, LLC provides enterprise customers and service providers in New York City and its surrounding boroughs with state of the art, custom built, dark fiber optic networks. As a leading provider of dark fiber networks in the New York Metropolitan area, Lexent is the only fiber provider that owns, operates, builds and maintains its own dark fiber network in-house.

Lexent provides its customers with the option to leverage an existing dark fiber network as an extension of their own, or to build a new, dedicated private fiber network throughout the City and its surrounding areas.  Lexent also provides direct connectivity to carrier-neutral colocation facilities, enabling Freedom of Choice in pursuing wholesale buying of Network Services.  Lexent's ever-growing network provides diverse connectivity between regional Carrier Hotels, Central Offices and Enterprise Buildings. As a high quality, fiber network design-engineering firm, Lexent Metro Connect provides innovative solutions for carrier and enterprise networks with 24/7, in-house support and proactive network operations monitoring.

 

The Lexent Network Difference

In 2002, Lexent Metro Connect developed a New York Fiber Network that, to-date, spans over 150 route-miles, includes Hudson and East River “Bore” crossings, and supports over 100 commercial buildings. Gaining a franchise for local, high capacity telecommunications services in 2002, Lexent Metro Connect is positioned as one of the foremost, ‘design-and-build’ telecommunications companies in the New York metropolitan area. Today, Lexent Metro Connect leases its wholly owned fiber backbone to carrier and enterprise customers while continuing to build out new, purpose-built, dark fiber networks for customers looking for innovative solutions to network challenges.

With over 25 years experience in the New York City telecommunications market and over 60 years experience in the New York City construction industry, Lexent is uniquely qualified to adapt to individual clients needs in a cost-effective, professional, secure manner.
