1623 Farnam has announced a strategic partnership with Bridged Broadband to expand carrier-diverse connectivity between Omaha, Kansas City and underserved rural Missouri markets. By establishing a presence inside 1623 Farnam’s interconnection hub, Bridged Broadband can directly exchange traffic with global, national and regional carriers, unlocking alternative, high-capacity routes that bypass traditional incumbent-controlled paths.

“Bridged Broadband selected 1623 Farnam for its unmatched connectivity ecosystem and dense carrier environment,” said Bill Severn, CEO & President of 1623 Farnam. “This partnership strengthens our role as the Midwest’s meet-me point while giving our customers access to truly diverse routes and rural markets that have historically been difficult to reach through traditional carrier networks.”

Bridged Broadband’s 800G DWDM backbone with full IP/MPLS integration introduces scalable capacity, low latency and built-in resiliency across routes fully diverse from national carrier networks. For enterprises, service providers and public-sector organizations, this delivers improved redundancy, stronger performance and meaningful access into rural Missouri communities that have historically lacked competitive infrastructure options.

The partnership reinforces 1623 Farnam’s interconnection-first strategy as demand rises for distributed infrastructure and diversified network architectures. By interconnecting locally in Omaha and extending traffic seamlessly into rural Missouri, customers gain a more resilient, future-ready path across the Midwest, anchored at one of the region’s most critical meet-me environments.
