EDINBURG, Va., May 30, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Glo Fiber, powered by Shenandoah
Telecommunications Company ("Shentel") (Nasdaq:
SHEN), announced they have reached an agreement to deploy next
generation fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) broadband services to
Spring Township in Centre County, Pennsylvania. Glo Fiber will
bring a future-proof, 100% fiber network to approximately 3,000
homes and businesses in the area.
Glo Fiber provides super-fast, symmetrical upload and download
speeds of up to 5 gigabits per second (Gbps). The direct
fiber-to-the-home internet connection, coupled with Shentel's
15,600-mile regional fiber network, enables Glo Fiber to deliver
high speeds, low latency, and unparalleled reliability. The company
has earned a reputation for providing superior local customer
service across its markets, including the growing list of
communities in Pennsylvania,
Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland and Ohio.
"We are excited to continue our Glo Fiber expansion throughout
the Centre County area," said
Chris Kyle, Vice President of
Industry & Regulatory Affairs at Shentel. "Spring Township is our seventh franchised
locality in the greater State
College area. We have and will continue to prioritize these
rural areas whose residents have historically lacked a competitive
option for their telecommunication needs. Our fiber-to-the-home
service will allow residents and businesses alike to fulfill their
Internet, TV, and phone needs at a fair price with exceptional
reliability and state-of-the-art speeds."
In combination with multi-gigabit internet
