Uniti Group Expands South-Central Fiber Network With $500 Million AI-Driven Investment

Uniti Group Inc. has announced a major expansion of its dark fiber network in the South-Central United States, backed by a 20-year customer contract valued at over $500 million—the largest in the company’s history. The initiative will add 1,100 route miles of ultra high-capacity fiber and upgrade space and power at more than 20 colocation sites, connecting key AI deployment hubs in cities like Amarillo, Haskell, Dallas, Little Rock, Muskogee, and Memphis. The first phase, set for delivery in January 2026, includes new fiber routes from Tulsa to Little Rock and from Little Rock to Memphis. This expansion aims to provide scalable, resilient infrastructure to meet the surging demand from hyperscalers and AI innovators, with further phases planned through 2027.
