You're not wrong, but you're not right for two reasons.
I believe the OP really wants a "transparent" service. It could
be a true wave, but it could also be a 10G channel muxed on a 100G
service. The properties they probably really care about are a raw
bitstream and guaranteed bandwidth. In th

You were not wrong on any particular point, but I don't think you may

You probably should describe what you mean by "optical wave". If you mean

You may find that optical providers don't really
want to mix 1G/10G waves in on systems that

There are lots of national carriers in the US. A much smaller number
of those carriers actually own the fiber cables. There are a handful
(Zayo, Level3, CenturyLink, Windstream, Earthlink, Verizon) that have
very large national, or semi-national foot prints.
The carriers frequently trade and lease
Zayo and Electric lightwave are two options, not sure who owns the fibre in the
ground in each case.
