Santa Monica City Net^SM

Santa Monica City Net^SM is a 10 Gb/s broadband initiative by the City of Santa Monica to support an environment for local businesses to compete in the global economy with cutting edge network solutions.

Santa Monica's fiber optic network offers many benefits to the tech and entertainment businesses headquartered along Santa Monica's Tech Coast. As a secure, fast, and cost-effective fiber optic network, Santa Monica City Net^SM provides the opportunity to integrate data, voice, and video, and efficiently manage data exchanges with business partners.

The city's fiber optic network assets extend throughout the downtown area and cover the majority of multiple tenant commercial buildings. The City of Santa Monica provides access direct to local businesses and through Internet Service Providers (ISPs) that service Santa Monica.

Lit Fiber

The city offers 100 Mb/s, 1 Gb/s, and 10 Gb/s fiber optic connections from Santa Monica City Net^SM On-net buildings to any of the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) connected to the Santa Monica City Net^SM Lit Fiber Optic Network in downtown Los Angeles. There are over 160 ISPs located in the downtown Los Angeles data centers to obtain services ranging from IP transit, Virtual Private Networks, cloud services, and more.
