SiFi Networks has been granted access to Cleveland’s right of ways to build a state-of-the-art community wide, fiber optic network, known as Cleveland FiberCity®. The network will be privately funded by SiFi Networks and is open access meaning that multiple service providers can deliver their services upon the network.

The network is built using microtrenching technology. The microtrenching machine is specifically designed to cut a 1.25 inch wide by 12 inch deep trench where fiber can be laid. The machine cleans the debris as it cuts so no dust is created, and the machine operates at a low 85 decibels. After the trench is cut, the fiber cables are laid and the trench is reinstated.
SiFi Networks is an international network developer, who funds, builds and operates community wide state of the art fiber networks enabling Internet Service Providers to deliver next generation applications including superfast internet, video and phone.

SiFi Networks doesn’t control pricing but the Internet Service Providers will be competitively priced and provide more choice of service provider to the city.
We aim to build the network citywide, so that once the network is complete fiber will be available to every neighborhood in the city. If you live in a private development your housing association or landlord will need to provide us with additional permissions before we can bring services in.
No. This is a privately funded project with no taxpayer’s dollars used.
Fiber optic networks enable superfast internet, up to 50 times faster than the average household in the USA.
