Long Island

Connectivity that keeps Long Island’s care and research moving.

From Nassau to Suffolk, Long Island runs on healthcare, research and the data that moves between them. Lightpath extends its dense New York footprint across the Island with resilient, diverse paths back to Manhattan and beyond.

Why Long Island runs on resilient fiber

Healthcare is the Island’s engine. Northwell Health, the state’s largest private employer, operates dozens of hospitals and hundreds of care sites here, alongside research institutions and a broad enterprise and government base. Patient data, imaging and genomics cannot tolerate a network that stalls. Long Island is also where transatlantic cable systems come ashore for the metro.
