How do I even ask an ISP if a fiber network is shared or dedicated?

I don't know the words, and the sales reps probably don't know either. I don't live in either Europe nor North America.

I'm willing to pay $10,000 for a dedicated fiber line that's shared by no one else, but I literally don't know how to explain what I need when I call the ISP.
