Take full control of your own fiber strands across our APAC backbone — light them, scale them, route them however your business needs. No physical build. No 18-month lead times. Hand-off ready.
Building dark fiber from scratch costs millions and takes years. We minimize that high construction cost by leveraging fiber strands already in the ground — our own backbone plus our partner network — and hand them over to you, unlit.
You get total control over wavelength, capacity, and routing. We keep the strands running, monitored, and protected. It’s your network. We just keep the lights on.
What you get
Every dark fiber order ships with the same four guarantees — engineered into the product, not bolted on.
Flexible Route Selection
Pick the path. Diverse routes, lowest latency, or the cheapest reach — we’ll quote whichever you ask for, and you can mix-and-match for redundancy.
Scalable Bandwidth & Control
Light a single 10G wave today, scale to 400G+ tomorrow — your transponders, your call. No carrier-side throttling, no port limits, no surprises.
Dedicated Infrastructure
Physically separated strands, not shared capacity. Your traffic never sits in a queue behind someone else’s. Guaranteed performance, predictable latency.
SingaporeHigh Security & Reliability
Layer-1 isolation means no shared L2/L3 with other tenants. Pair with our SLA-backed protection and your traffic doesn’t touch anyone else’s network.
How it works
DCConnect handles the physical layer — you handle the business. No build crews, no permits, no waiting on regulators.
Tell us your endpoints
Two locations, three, twenty — across any of our 1,164 cities. We map possible routes, fiber counts, and protection options against your latency and diversity requirements.
We hand over the strands
Once the contract is signed, we deliver KMZ route files, OTDR test reports, and demarc details. You bring your own DWDM gear — light it however you want.
We keep them alive
24×7 NOC monitoring, fiber cut response under SLA, scheduled maintenance windows you sign off on. You run the network. We make sure the glass keeps glowing.
We deliver unlit, high-capacity optical fiber and hand over the reins. End-to-end control over the strand — you decide how to use bandwidth, when to upgrade, and how to topology-engineer for your traffic.
Bypass the complexities of building and managing physical infrastructure. Skip the dig permits, the right-of-way negotiations, the splicing crews. We’ve already done it.
Technical specifications
What you get in the spec sheet exact fiber types, mode, support, and documentation deliverables.
How it works
Fiber-Optic Cable
ITU-T compliant standard single-mode fiber. G.655 dispersion-shifted available on selected long-haul routes (limited availability).
Mode
Mode Type
9/125 μm core. Engineered for long-haul, low-attenuation, high-bandwidth DWDM applications across our entire APAC footprint.
Operations
24×7 NOC Support
Real-time network monitoring, fiber-cut alarms, and customer service. Same NOC that runs our SDN backbone — staffed around the clock.
Documentation
KMZ Map File
Google Earth–compatible KMZ files showing exact geographic route, splice points, and amplifier huts. Provided once order is confirmed.
Testing
OTDR Test Report
Bi-directional Optical Time Domain Reflectometer reports per fiber pair — attenuation, splice loss, and total link budget documented.
Coverage
Geographic Reach
1,164 cities across 63 countries. Direct fiber in our own footprint, plus partner reach into onnet metros across Europe and North America.
Who uses this
When you need full control, isolation, and capacity headroom that a lit service can’t match.
Hyperscaler & Cloud DCI
ITU-T compliant standard single-mode fiber. G.655 dispersion-shifted available on selected long-haul routes (limited availability).
Trading & Financial Networks
Co-lo to co-lo, exchange to exchange. Engineered shortest-path routing, dedicated strands, and the lowest possible deterministic latency. Don’t share fiber with anyone.
Carriers & Wholesale
White-label your backbone. Light your own brand on our glass. Sell capacity downstream without the CapEx or 18-month dig timelines — we keep the fiber, you keep the margin.
Government & Critical Infra
Layer-1 isolation, fiber-level encryption-at-the-endpoint, and no shared traffic. For workloads where data sovereignty and physical separation aren’t a nice-to-have — they’re the spec.
