Times Faster than T-Mobile 5G Home Internet, Providing an
Ultra-Fast, Reliable Connectivity Experience
Optimum 8 Gig Service Will Expand to Nearly 3
Million Fiber Passings by Year End
Optimum, a brand of Altice USA (NYSE: ATUS), today announces the
launch of its new 8 Gig symmetrical Fiber Internet service, now
available to more than 1.7 million residents and businesses across
the company’s fiber footprint. By year end, Optimum 8 Gig Fiber
will be available to nearly 3 million passings and will expand as
the Company’s fiber network build continues.
This launch represents the largest deployment of 8 Gig internet
speeds in the country and cements Optimum as the nation’s largest 8
Gig internet provider, delivering the fastest Fiber Internet
available in its serviceable footprint that is four times faster
than Verizon, 60% faster than Frontier, and 32 times faster than
T-Mobile 5G Home Internet.
“After launching 2 and 5 Gig symmetrical Fiber Internet speeds
last year, Optimum is pleased to have invested even further in our
network and infrastructure to bring next level 8 Gig symmetrical
internet speeds to our fiber footprint,” said Leroy Williams, Chief
Growth Officer, Optimum. “Optimum is now the nation’s largest 8 Gig
Fiber Internet provider, and availability will continue to increase
as we deploy fiber to more homes and businesses as we solidify our
position as the connectivity provider of choice across all the
communities we serve. We look forward to bringing these reliable
and faster speeds, along with an enhanced customer experience, to
meet our customers’ growing data needs today and into the
future.”
Backed by Optimum’s 100% Fiber Internet network with 99.9%
network reliability, Optimum’s 8 Gig Fiber Internet offers 8 Gig
symmetrical upload and download speeds to support the most
data-intensive applications such as AR/VR, gaming, graphic design,
and video production, all while providing increased bandwidth that
can simultaneously connect 100+ devices to the internet at once.
The service is delivered directly into the home via the Optimum
Fiber Gateway to enable fast, reliable WiFi in the home or
business, with extenders available for extra coverage.
“Optimum’s Fiber is deployed using XGS-PON, an advanced
technology that enables multi-gigabit symmetrical speeds and that
is superior to the legacy GPON standard used by many other fiber
providers,” said Pragash Pillai, Chief Technology and Information
Officer, Optimum. “As we continue to bring faster, more reliable
service to customers through this state-of-the-art technology, the
strength of Optimum’s Fiber network goes unmatched.”
Optimum continues to be a leader in the deployment of
multi-gigabit internet speeds across the nation, having launched 2
and 5 Gig internet service across its fiber footprint in the New
York tri-state area last year, and now adding an additional 8 Gig
speed tier to more homes and businesses on its 100% Fiber Internet
Network.
