Some companies have run fiber optic lines in certain areas, mostly
metropolitan areas, and they sell fiber runs to companies that require them.
Dark means that the fiber carries no services when you get it, it is just a
cable between 2 locations, you can then connect the fiber to equipment at
both ends and run services over it. So I could order a dark fiber
connection between downtown New York and uptown New York, and connect it to
Gig E interfaces at both ends.
