Given the tremendous investment in fiber, with over half of U.S. households having access and about 25% using fiber services, there's a significant opportunity for further growth. Especially when emphasizing both increasing penetration in existing areas and expanding into underinvested regions.

Is new data center buildout driving more fiber infrastructure?
Are there still opportunities in rural fiver for large cap investment groups?
How is the investment landscape for fiber evolving, and how are operators and investors alike approaching the consolidation wave?
