UNPARALLELED CONNECTIVITY
A significant leap in connectivity, this 40± mile fiber ring network connects Maryland to Northern Virginia’s global internet hub via more than 235,000 strands of fiber, providing connectivity in one millisecond RTT.
LOW PROFILE DESIGN
Continuing our commitment to harmonize technology and nature, QLoop is buried under the Potomac, enabling ISPs to invisibly deliver data to customers and the community.
Dig Once Approach
A dig-once strategy for QLoop ensures that all conduits are placed simultaneously. This approach not only protects the land along the route from repeated disturbances but also supports future campus expansions and accelerates the speed to market for customers.
Unseen Innovation
40 Miles of Invisible Fiber
To connect Maryland to the heart of the global internet, we undertook the massive project of boring under the Potomac and out of the state of Maryland to link up with Northern Virginia’s Internet Hub. This low-profile design will provide the highest impact to our customers while respecting our communities’ way of life.
