In addition to adding 40 miles of fiber route miles to Bluebird’s network, the company also established three new Points of Presence (PoPs) in Southwest Missouri.

The purchase bolsters Bluebird’s expansive state-of-the-art fiber footprint in the region and enables more businesses and organizations throughout the Midwest to take control of their digital transformation.
