DFS Implements Connected World

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.,—   Connected2Fiber, the leading SaaS market acceleration platform for connectivity companies, announced today that Dark Fiber Systems, Inc. has signed an agreement to implement the platform and leverage the Connected World. DFS will also be implementing the Building List Manager, an automated software module for creating and distributing OnNet and NearNet building lists.

DFS is one of the largest competitive fiber operators in Jacksonville, extending its infrastructure over 140 miles and passing more than 2200 commercial locations, wireless towers, data centers and key government facilities. The company’s network infrastructure reach necessitated a location management system incorporating both the identification of fiber paths, OnNet and NearNet buildings, and Connected2Fiber’s demand generation tool, Building List Manager.

“We are excited to launch the Connected World platform and leverage the Building List Manager. DFS has an incredible network in the Jacksonville metro area and with the new tools we are able to drive new revenue and let the market know what we have. Automating the process of creating building lists, mapping the lists to all of the carrier and channel formats; distributing that information in minutes, and on an updated basis, gives us the ability to drive participation. That translates into new revenue and growth,” said Jered Bearden, President of Dark Fiber Systems.

The Connected World uses a SaaS based GIS engine for displaying fiber routes, OnNet connected buildings and NearNet locations to visualize and analyze data related to the market. This information is crucial to ensure that network operators are pushing network reach information to key customers and inserting location information into their buying processes in an efficient and ongoing manner.

“We are excited to welcome DFS to our platform and look forward to helping them drive market participation in the wholesale, channel and enterprise markets. DFS is currently performing a network wide NearNet analysis with Connected2Fiber’s SaaS tools and establishing the tools as its primary mapping and market intelligence solution,” said Ben Edmond, CEO & Founder of Customer at Connected2Fiber.
