We’re excited to announce that CarrierFinder now features updated fiber data for FirstLight! Whether you're sourcing fiber for a new project, expanding your network, or evaluating connectivity options, FirstLight’s extensive fiber footprint is now fully searchable on our platform.
This update allows you to search FirstLight’s coverage by address, compare it with other carriers, and move forward with confidence. When it comes to pricing and installation, working with an experienced advisor can make all the difference—using industry knowledge and strong carrier relationships to ensure you get the best options available.
FirstLight: A Trusted Partner for Businesses and ISPs
FirstLight delivers high-performance fiber solutions to businesses, government agencies, and service providers across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. With a robust network spanning from Pennsylvania to Maine, FirstLight powers enterprise internet, transport, and cloud connectivity.
At CarrierFinder, we’re always looking for carriers that truly support the ISP community—and FirstLight fits the bill. They play a key role in helping ISPs grow by providing the fiber backbone for network expansion, backhaul, and last-mile connectivity. By partnering with ISPs, FirstLight helps extend coverage, improve network performance, and meet the growing demand for high-speed connectivity.
FirstLight can build fiber directly to the customer and keeps data flowing on their own infrastructure for maximum reliability. When needed, they can also tap into another provider's fiber for last-mile access, ensuring flexible, scalable solutions that keep businesses and ISPs seamlessly connected.
