Views: 515
Federal funding for the new fiber optic broadband network, connecting 34 counties in southeastern and east central Ohio,  will connect businesses, governmental, educational and health care facilities to the new world-class network.
The project, known as Connecting Appalachia,
. . . will provide high-capacity broadband services,
. . . with speeds of up to 10 gigabits per second.
This stretch of fiber optics is known as middle mile fiber,
. . . provide relatively fast, large-capacity connections
. . . between the network backbone (or backhaul) and last mile connection.
Once completed, the 3 projects will add nearly
. . . 3,660 miles of new fiber-optic cable in virtually all of Ohio’s 88 counties.
