The University of Maine System is building a dark-fiber based network that will ensure Maine’s research and education community has the infrastructure to compete with its peers throughout the nation.

This activity is critical not only to our institutions’ ability to recruit top research faculty, but also as an important component in Maine's ability to retain high-technology research that is dependent on high-performance, carrier-independent, dedicated access to similar national and international network efforts.
