Hunter Newby on Open Access Infrastructure #broadband #fiber #innovation @AlliedFiber
Hunter Newby, CEO and President of Allied Fiber, has visited ISOC-NY more than once to explain the company’s plans to build an open access backbone fiber ring around the USA. We liked his ideas enough to invite him to participate in the Technology Panel at the recent INET New York. Writer John Savageau has interviewed Hunter and published part 1 – Hunter Newby on Communications in America – Are We Competitive? – of a resulting series of three articles.
Savageau concisely sums up the Allied Fiber philosophy. See below:

Hunter Newby / ISOC-NY Round 2 – Wed 14 Jul – video coming soon
ISOC-NY held a meeting with Hunter Newby, CEO of Allied Fiber, on Jun 28 2010. This was an interesting and wide ranging roundtable discussion on AF’s plans to encircle the entire USA with a dark fiber ring with carrier neutral access at any point.
As the meeting was held at short notice, regrettably our two associates with the greatest expertise in such matters Frank Coluccio and NYC Community Fiber’s Lou Klepner were not able to be present. Also, it was decided, rather than attempt a coherent edit of 2+ hours of audio, to videotape a follow-up meeting commencing with a more formal presentation, and both Frank and Lou in attendance.
This meeting took place on Weds 14 July 2010 at NYU. Video is now posted on the ISOC-NY site
