I wouldn't have thought that Frontier was able to offer dark fiber, since air distribution fan out is all GPON, is it not?If their fanout was active ethernet it might be a different story but...
They have access to/control of a large amount of mid-mile and long-haul fiber built by/as GTE and Verizon. Additionally, while their resi/soho distribution is all PON, they do have some excess fiber fairly deep into their network in most markets and actively offer active-E service on it for the right price (it can even occasionally be competitive). I imagine they'd sell dark for the right price as well, though you may not like that "right" price.
