Escondido is one step closer to a fully connected future as the Escondido FiberCity\u00ae initiative hits a major milestone: over 600,000 feet, nearly 113 miles, of fiber-optic cables have now been laid across the city. This progress marks a significant leap forward in delivering high-speed internet access to every corner of the community.<\/p>\n
SiFi Networks and Viasat are teaming up to bring advanced fiber optic internet to Escondido. SiFi Networks is spearheading the construction and operation of this open-access network, and Viasat will offer internet services and support to homes and businesses through Viasat Fiber.<\/p>\n
Once live, the Escondido FiberCity\u00ae network will give all homes and businesses access to high-speed, reliable internet while supporting a wide array of modern applications\u2014including public safety systems, remote learning and work as well as emerging technologies like AI-powered services.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re not just laying fiber\u2014we\u2019re laying the foundation for Escondido\u2019s digital future,\u201d said Christopher Melendez, Project Manager. \u201cWith over 600,000 feet of fiber installed, this project reflects our long-term commitment to delivering innovation and connectivity for all.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Escondido FiberCity\u00ae project is a key part of expanding equitable access to internet services across the city. It\u2019s built to meet today\u2019s digital demands while equipping the city to embrace tomorrow\u2019s technologies.<\/p>\n
