Fiber optic internet is the way of the future for delivering broadband.
As the industry shifts to fiber optic cable for faster internet speeds, many associations will be negotiating new contracts. With fiber optic internet, the association has the flexibility and infrastructure to increase up to 10 Gb speeds over a more reliable network. The installation of the physical fiber requires digging the fiber to the building and the over-build and launch process. Fiber has virtually unlimited bandwidth and its durability will last for years to come! Fiber is future ready and fast!
