“Dark Fiber” and Google

On this article I will let you know about the Dark Fiber and Google relation to it.

Some of us have heard about the ever popular and the emerging usage of “Dark Fiber”.

What exactly is “Dark Fiber”? as opposed to the regular optical fibers we read about. Dark Fiber is the chunk of optical fiber wires that can potentially be used and utilized in order to facilitate the fiber optic related operations.

 

Since Dark Fiber are the cables that can be used to potentially for any operation related to fiber optics, The Tech Giant Google is currently eyeing to utilize all the dark fiber around the US to present its users with potentially the best internet speed they have ever seen.

This “plan” of Google seems to be in full flow as of now and is the one that could make Google an even bigger heavyweight within the tech market. If this plans “succeeds” then this could mean that Google could climb to the no. 1 spot in terms of connection speeds.

Google, for a very long time, has been one of those organizations that have taken over all fronts in the tech game, whether it is the search engine business, Email, data storage, cloud services or any other tech endeavors. It would be no surprise at all if Google, the tech giant would want to go all out in providing full speed internet connectivity to the users not only in the US but all over the world.

 

If Google definitely try to fully exploit and pursue this concept of ultra fast internet connection then the other miscellaneous companies that are currently at the top of the ISP pyramid might have trouble keeping up with the tech giant Google. This could be another case of the big fish eating the smaller case but the only minor difference about this predicament would be the fact that Google being the big fish, could gulp down almost all of the small fish in the pond.

Although, it may seem there is not much movement by Google itself on using this dark fiber yet, but we can count on Google to come up with some much needed “announcements” out of the blue. One thing that will happen though is the fact that when Dark Fiber and Google rolls out on public with some usage plans, there will be an influx of people very much willing to test out what the Dark Fiber and Google has to offer based solely on the fact that it will simply offer a much better level of service to their subscribers as compared to other major ISP providers.

This would definitely mean a new form of internet since this would involve high speed internet, the services of Google which would be undoubtedly much better as compared to the other ISP companies such as Comcast or maybe AT&T. The reason for this is the increasing displease shown by the customers of the existing ISP that are around nowadays.
