Pilot Fiber has finalized its acquisition of Extenet Systems LLC's enterprise fiber business.

The acquisition expands Pilot's fiber footprint beyond its existing New York metro area into New Jersey.

Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

The deal, first announced six months ago, closed on August 15, 2026, and adds the former Hudson Fiber Network and Axiom Fiber Network assets to Pilot's ownership.

It also adds direct fiber access to more than 20 data centers to its footprint, which it notes includes direct access to Nasdaq and NYSE. According to the company's website, Pilot connects 47 data centers.

The acquisition will also see approximately 200 additional enterprise, carrier, and institutional customers across financial services, healthcare, media, and higher education transition onto Pilot’s network.

“This is an exciting moment for us as we welcome Extenet’s customer base to Pilot. The combined network allows us to deliver more value to both new and existing customers. With the acquisition complete, our focus turns to execution. We will be investing in this infrastructure and our newly acquired footprint in New Jersey while continuing to provide customers with a world-class experience," said Joseph Fasone, CEO of Pilot.

Founded in 2014, Pilot has built a network of more than 300 miles of modern fiber infrastructure throughout New York City. The company serves more than 3,700 businesses across more than 1,000 buildings with a full suite of services, including dedicated Internet access, Ethernet transport, dark fiber, wavelength, and IP transit.
