Atlanta to Myrtle Beach Dark Fiber Route

DC BLOX is building the first dark fiber route between the new Myrtle Beach cable landing station in South Carolina, connecting through Charleston, Augusta, Atlanta’s major connectivity centers, and landing in Lithia Springs Georgia. Using our knowledge and relationships in the local region, we negotiated key rights of way to give high capacity enterprises and hyperscalers the only direct east-west option in this part of the country.
