Mediacom brings Gig+ service to Webster and Elko New Market (Rice and Scott Counties)

Global Newswire reports

Mediacom Communications today announced the company has launched multi-gig and symmetrical speed broadband services to nearly 1,800 households located in the rural Minnesota communities of Webster and Elko New Market.

Utilizing breakthrough technology to enhance the company’s fiber-powered network, Mediacom has created a more responsive end-to-end customer experience that prioritizes faster upload and download speeds, uncompromised network reliability, safe and secure connections, and lower latency.

Utilizing the new platform, Webster and Elko New Market residents will be able to choose from the following Xtream Internet offerings from Mediacom:

  • Internet 300 tier with speeds of 300 Mbps down and 100 Mbps up.
  • Internet 1 Gig Symmetrical tier with speeds of 1000 Mbps down by 1000 Mbps up.
  • Internet 2 Gig Unlimited tier with speeds of 2000 Mbps down by 1000 Mbps up.

The scalability of these network improvements will seamlessly allow Mediacom to ramp up from the one and two gigabit offerings of today to speeds of 10 gigabits and beyond in the coming years. Since this new technology is delivered using Mediacom’s existing fiber-rich network architecture, it was not necessary to dig up yards to add bulky equipment or bury cables.
