FIBER TRANSPORT FOR WHEN EVERY MILLISECOND MATTERS

A wavelength service, often called a wave, is a dedicated optical channel that carries one customer’s traffic at a fixed capacity between two locations. The provider lights and manages the fiber, so the customer gets private, high-capacity transport without running optical equipment. DQE Communications delivers wavelength services across Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland.

DQE Communications delivers 100G, 400G, and 800G wavelength services across Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland. 400G wavelengths are readily available today.

A business needs a wavelength service when it moves large volumes of data between fixed locations and needs guaranteed capacity, low latency, and complete traffic isolation. Common uses include data center interconnect, data replication, AI workloads, financial transactions, and imaging. DQE Communications engineers wavelength routes for these uses across Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland.

DQE wavelength services deliver intra-metro latency in the 1-2 millisecond range. DQE Communications runs wavelengths on a 100% fiber backbone in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland, monitored by a 24/7 NOC with immediate escalation to local engineers.

With a wavelength service, DQE lights the fiber and delivers a set amount of dedicated capacity, so the customer does not manage optical equipment. With dark fiber, the customer leases unlit strands and installs its own equipment for full control over capacity and design. DQE Communications offers both on the same regional fiber network in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland.

DQE Communications engineers wavelength services over multiple physical paths on its 100% fiber backbone, including routes that avoid the usual corridors. Multiple protection-level options let carriers and enterprises in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland choose the resiliency each route needs.

DQE wavelength services connect regional data centers and aggregation hubs from a fiber network that serves Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland. Routes include Pittsburgh to Morgantown, West Virginia, with reach to hubs in Ashburn and Columbus.
