Verizon has reached a multi-billion-dollar supply agreement with Corning for over 80 million miles of high-density optical fiber to meet surging demand. The agreement will provide the high-capacity optical solutions needed to expand nationwide consumer broadband access while scaling a high-density backbone to support Gen AI needs.

Verizon will leverage Corning's Flow Cable, which enables Verizon to deploy significantly more optical fiber within conduit pathways, maximizing the value of Verizon's existing infrastructure investments while substantially increasing network capacity and bandwidth.
The agreement will bolster Verizon's move to pass 40-50 million passings with fiber, both inside its traditional wireline territory and in new areas it has entered through partnerships and acquisitions.
Verizon's deal with Google was just one of many high-profile fiber deals service providers have made with Corning to support a hyperscaler customer.
Lumen and Zayo are being no less aggressive, with Lumen striking a deal in 2024 to reserve 10% of Corning's global fiber capacity for each of the next two years to interconnect AI-enabled data centers from Microsoft and others.
