What Is Quantum Fiber?

Quantum Fiber is the fiber-optic internet service brand operated by Lumen (the same company behind CenturyLink’s legacy services). It delivers a “fiber to the premises” connection — meaning the fiber optic line extends all the way to your home or business wherever possible.

It is being rolled out gradually in markets formerly served by CenturyLink’s fiber infrastructure, with an aim to phase out older branding and bring long-term expansion.
