Company History

FPL Group’s fiber-optic network was originally developed in the late 1980’s to provide internal telecommunications services to support company operations. In 1996, FPL began selling excess fiber-optic capacity along its network to the major telecommunications companies operating in Florida. FPL FiberNet, LLC acquired an existing 1,600-mile inter-city fiber network from Florida Power & Light. The company was launched in early 2000 to sell fiber-optic network capacity and dark fiber on a wholesale basis to local and long distance telephone companies, Internet Service Providers and other telecommunications companies in Florida. Since its inception, FPL FiberNet has invested millions of dollars to build its fiber-optic network throughout Florida's major metropolitan areas as well as state of the art Optical Networking and Ethernet equipment.
