Fiber is the future

Fiber is the fastest, most reliable internet service available. We offer speeds of 150 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload. This means you can run advanced applications, video, and cloud services simultaneously and seamlessly. Additional speeds and enterprise packages are available upon request. Contact us to get a package customized for your needs.

The advantages of fiber internet are many:

• Consistently fast speeds, unaffected by weather or peak hours
• Greater efficiency for employees with less downtime 
• Strong, consistent signal strength regardless of computer location in your facility 
• Greater security from hackers (no tapping fiber like they do cables)
• Participate in video conferences without sacrificing available bandwidth
• Fiber is easily expanded and scaled to handle your bandwidth needs over time

How fast is fiber?

You are probably wondering what the differences are between fiber and cable internet. Cable uses electrical frequencies to translate information, fiber uses light to transmit the data. We are all familiar with the phrase “moving at the speed of light”—it means fast. Very fast. 186,000 miles per second fast, if you want to be exact. In comparison, cable internet has technological speed limits.

Why is fiber more reliable?

The answer is simple: fiber lines are not affected by weather like cable. Because cable internet uses electrical technology, service can be spotty during storms and non-existent during power outages. This is not the case with fiber, thanks to its light-based transmission.

I want fiber—now what?

First, you can check out our interactive service area map to see if fiber is offered in your area. If it is not yet available in your area, you can make a request to have fiber installed in your area. This data helps us see where there is interest and determine where to expand to next. 

Did you know we also offer DSL internet services? DSL uses the copper wiring from phone lines to deliver internet access with a dedicated connection. This means you have 24/7 buffer-free streaming and no slow-downs during peak hours. Contact us if you are interested in learning more about DSL internet.
