US cableco Cable ONE has revealed that it has made investments of nearly USD950 million over the last three years, as it seeks to increase capacity and extend coverage ahead of its planned introduction of 10Gbps download speeds. The funding has been used to support the cableco’s Sparklight, Fidelity, Hargray and ValuNet brands, which together serve more than one million fixed broadband subscriptions. Cable ONE expects the planned launch of DOCSIS 4.0 technology to be the ‘cornerstone’ of its 10Gbps strategy.
Julie Laulis, Cable ONE President and CEO of Cable ONE, commented: ‘Looking to the future, we are laying the groundwork for 10G speeds and investing in a new era of innovation that will not only further enrich the lives of our customers but contribute to the economic development of the communities we serve.’
