All dark fibre providers I know of, that eventually start=20
off as pure dark fibre players, will eventually enter into=20
the services game.
Even those that do so cautiously, but only deploying DWDM=20
spectrum before to maintain the "darkness" of the fibre,=20
will eventually add yet more serices on top of that.
It's just like how wholesale providers have to, at some=20
point, look into enterprise business. You can't just survive=20
being an infrastructure-only provider, in the long run.
