PLUG INTO THE FUTURE.
Curious why fiber is considered the internet of the future? We’ve got some powerful reasons why below.
SYMMETRICAL SPEED
WORKS HARD.
WORKS HARD.
PLAYS EVEN HARDER.
Only fiber internet offers upload and download speeds that are the same, or symmetrical. It’s a big deal because if your home and office are in the same place, you get the required upload speed for cloud-based work collaboration and file sharing platforms. Instantly stream movies without download lag times. And since gaming is all about the transfer of large amounts of data in real time, fiber upload speeds are a win, win.
RELIABILITY
NEVER TAKES A DAY OFF.
Fiber internet lives underground. That’s where mother nature doesn’t stand a chance to interfere with your service. Plus, it’s less susceptible to interference and radio waves, unlike copper cable networks. That’s the day in, day out reliability that only fiber offers.
FUTURE PROOF
STAYING POWER.
If you see fiber internet being installed in your neighborhood, you can be confident that it will likely stay in the ground for a very long time. Here are some other powerful reasons why fiber is the superior choice for your home or business.
MORE DATA
Thinner than a human hair, as fiber technologies evolve it could soon carry 40+ terrabytes of data per second. How fast is that? 1 million times faster than any other internet speed.
WEATHERPROOFED
Fiber is engineered to safeguard against severe weather, moisture, electrical surges, and isn’t a fire hazard.
SIGNAL DURABILITY
Copper lines have a signal degradation of 94% over a distance of 328 ft. While fiber optic lines can maintain full transmission strength for over 24 miles.
DEDICATED INTERNET ACCESS
Fiber Internet provides guaranteed bandwidth direct to your home for faster speeds and reliability. Unlike cable that is shared among multiple homes and has slow performance during peak hours.
