LITTLE ROCK, Ark. & MIAMI, Fl. – March 18, 2025 — Windstream Wholesale, a leader in advanced network solutions, proudly announces a strategic alliance with Cirion Technologies, providing home wavelength services from the Myrtle Beach Cable Landing Station (CLS) to its U.S. network core nodes. This agreement underscores the robust demand for Windstream’s Intelligent Converged Optical Network (ICON), which delivers next-generation connectivity and marks a significant advancement in global network capabilities.

Cirion Technologies provides high-performance and reliable connectivity solutions to more than 5,500 customers, including multinational companies and those based in Latin America. Its full range of services includes colocation, cloud infrastructure, and terrestrial and submarine fiber network services.

This collaboration with Cirion Technologies is a vital component of Windstream Wholesale's Beach Route initiative, which focuses on delivering adaptable lit and dark fiber solutions through diverse connectivity to submarine cables along the East Coast.

This strategic route allows international customers to take advantage of innovative gateway options in the United States, providing flexibility for global network connectivity.

Windstream Wholesale is poised to meet the growing demand for high-capacity illuminated connections to submarine cables, such as:

  • Anjana: A 7,121 km fiber optic cable connecting Myrtle Beach to Santander, Spain.
  • Firmina: a cable car connecting Myrtle Beach to South American countries.
  • Nuvem: A connection from Myrtle Beach to Bermuda and Portugal.

As an anchor customer, Cirion Technologies is expanding its network capabilities by securing connectivity from Myrtle Beach to its landing station in Hollywood, Florida. This partnership underscores the strong demand for Windstream's innovative connectivity solutions and highlights Cirion's commitment to better serving its broad customer base.

"This strategic alliance with Cirion Technologies illustrates our commitment to providing cutting-edge connectivity solutions that empower our customers with unmatched choice," said Joe Scattareggia, President of Windstream Wholesale.
