Consolidated Communications Launches Blazing Fast 1 Gig Internet Speeds in California
August 23 2016 - 11:45AM
Consolidated Communications, Inc. (CCI) (NASDAQ:CNSL) today
announced 1 Gig Internet speeds are now available in select areas
in its California service territory. Consolidated Communications
has expanded 1 Gig availability to 16,000 fiber-to-the-home
customers in the Roseville, Calif. area. The 1 Gig package is
available to new and existing customers for $69.95 per month.
“Our customer’s expectation for instant access to online
content, such as videos, music and games, and the desire to power
an increasing number of devices in the home continues to grow,”
said Rob Koester, vice president of consumer products for
Consolidated Communications. “We’re thrilled to be able to meet
these demands as we invest in our network and bring gigabit speeds
to more homes across the region. We’re starting with 16,000 homes
in Roseville and will add new areas as regional facilities are
upgraded.”
CCI’s 1 Gig service, which is equivalent to 1,000 Mbps, is among
the fastest connections available to residential customers across
the nation. Customers with a 1 Gig connection can expect to:
- Use multiple devices at once without sacrificing speed
- Stream movies, download videos and upload photos with virtually
no buffering or waiting
- Experience online gaming with a fast, stable connection
- Work from home with a reliable connection that supports VPN
access and video conferencing
- Connect to blazing fast wireless speeds and expanded in-home
coverage with the provided 1-Gig compatible router
“Being the first city in California where CCI deploys this speed
of Internet connection is a strategic advantage for our city,” said
Roseville Mayor Carol Garcia. “Roseville’s been recognized by
the Center for Digital Government as one of the top digital cities
in the nation. We were also named one of the top ten cities in
California for young families, who appreciate the power of fast
Internet connections, so we appreciate this significant enhancement
to our technology infrastructure.”
CCI previously launched 1 Gig Internet Speeds in Kansas City,
Kan. in 2014, followed by its Houston, Texas market in 2015. Prior
to this launch, CCI offered high-speed Internet up to 100MB over
its fiber-to-the home network.
