Corning and Lumen Reach Supply Agreement on Next-Generation Fiber-Optic Cable to Support Data Center AI Demands
CORNING, N.Y. and DENVER — Lumen Technologies (NYSE: LUMN) today announced an agreement with Corning Incorporated (NYSE: GLW) for a substantial supply of next-generation optical cable. This fiber-dense cable will more than double Lumen’s U.S. intercity fiber miles, offering significant capacity to major cloud data centers racing to stay ahead of AI workloads and high bandwidth applications fueled by massive amounts of data.
The rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence requires at least 10 times more fiber connections within data centers, as well as a robust fiber network to transmit information between these data hubs. With this agreement, Lumen reserves 10% of Corning’s global fiber capacity for each of the next two years.
The agreement, Lumen’s largest cable purchase, will equip Lumen to meet the network infrastructure needs of major data center operators for years to come, including Microsoft, which announced last week that it’s investing with Lumen to support the rising demand on its data centers.
