Metronet is positioned for businesses operating in the Metronet fiber footprint that want owned-and-operated metro fiber rather than a reseller relationship — covering Business Fiber, Business Fiber Elite (DIA), Ethernet transport, Hosted PBX, SIP Trunking, eFax, and Managed Wi-Fi under one accountable operator. The structural advantage is single-operator accountability for both the underlying fiber and the service layer on top. Fibi sources and negotiates Metronet on your behalf, at no cost to your business.
Portfolio
A full metro-fiber operating model — Business Fiber, Business Fiber Elite (DIA), Ethernet transport, Business Voice, Hosted PBX, SIP Trunking, eFax, and Managed Wi-Fi delivered over Metronet's owned-and-operated metro fiber footprint.
Symmetrical fiber connectivity for general business-internet use cases — delivered over Metronet's owned-and-operated metro fiber footprint rather than a reseller relationship over a third-party network. The structural advantage is single-operator accountability for both the underlying fiber and the service layer on top.
DIA-grade service with formal SLA, dedicated bandwidth, and business-grade performance guarantees — for organizations whose operating model requires guaranteed performance rather than best-effort business broadband. Delivered over the same Metronet metro fiber footprint as Business Fiber.
Ethernet transport for multi-site organizations needing Layer 2 connectivity between locations within the Metronet footprint rather than full Internet routing for every site. Pairs with Business Fiber and Hosted PBX for multi-location organizations consolidating connectivity, transport, and voice under one operator.
Productized cloud-phone system for organizations replacing legacy on-premises PBX hardware — delivered over the same metro fiber underlay rather than over a third-party voice provider. The single-operator model materially simplifies multi-location voice deployments.
SIP Trunking path for organizations preserving existing PBX investments — connecting on-premises voice infrastructure to the Metronet network rather than requiring a full PBX replacement. Delivered over the same metro fiber underlay as the broader connectivity portfolio.
Business Voice and eFax round out the voice portfolio — covering organizations whose voice requirements include traditional business-line voice and fax document workflows alongside cloud PBX deployments.
Productized Wi-Fi service — access points, configuration, monitoring, change management, and ongoing operations delivered by Metronet rather than configured and operated by the customer. Pairs with the underlying Metronet fiber and voice portfolio to deliver one operator across the full network stack.
Built for multi-tenant properties, multi-site retail, hospitality, healthcare, and education — where every location needs Internet, voice, and Wi-Fi from one provider with one accountable operator rather than per-site vendor sprawl.

Why Metronet
Structural advantages that justify Metronet as a single regional fiber operator rather than a national reseller layered on top of a third-party network.

The two tiers cover the full spectrum from general business connectivity to mission-critical guaranteed performance.
