Lewiston-based Oxford Networks and Albany, N.Y.-based First Light Fiber, which are both owned by Oak Hill Capital Partners, announced today they have rebranded to a single company name, “FirstLight.”
The rebranding includes ION Communications, another company acquired by Oak Hill.
“Rebranding to a single company name ‘FirstLight’ represents another significant milestone in our integration process to create one team with a singular focus on continuing to provide outstanding service and support to our customers,” Kurt Van Wagenen, president and CEO of FirstLight, said in a news release.
Offering network, Internet, data center, cloud and voice services, FirstLight operates a regional fiber network serving enterprise and carrier customers throughout the Northeast, connecting more than 5,000 locations in service with an additional 20,000 locations serviceable by its 9,600-route mile network.
In its news release, FirstLight reported that upon the close of its recently announced acquisition of Finger Lakes Technologies Group, the company will then operate a regional network consisting of approximately 12,000 route miles of high-capacity fiber in six states and Canada, with more than 7,000 on-net locations and 12 data centers totaling more than 225,000 square feet of space strategically located throughout its footprint.
