“This $175 million investment is the first phase of Fermaca Networks’ Mexico network expansion. It marks the first phase of bringing much sought Long Distance Dark Fiber availability between the US and Mexico. Fermaca Networks has also created the Fermaca Fiber Partners Program, which consists of the ‘Best of Breed’ Metro, Regional, Long-Haul and international fiber network operators in order to interconnect the most important Data Centers in the country,” said Edgar Mosti – Chief Revenue Officer, Fermaca Networks.
FN-1 will be the first cable to be deployed in Mexico in 26 years. This new US-Mexico digital highway will offer key players such as Hyper-scalers, Carriers and Large Enterprises unlimited capacity required by the market and will play a key part in empowering the fast-growing Data demand in Mexico. The 192-fiber/Multi Duct system will be completed in Q4 2025.
Fermaca Networks has spent the last two years designing the most efficient fiber optic route that utilizes a combination of unique Right of Ways. “The combination of Fermaca Infraestructura’s know-how with 8000+ Landowners and Public Right of Ways, paired with a track record of successful completion of Energy projects make us an ideal market maker in the Telecom space,” said Ray Fletcher – CEO of Fermaca Networks.
