Providing faster internet speeds allows better access to learning resources and materials, thus opening up new opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, as better connected and increasingly data hungry devices become common place at home and in the workplace, and data heavy applications such as cloud-based facilities are increasingly utilized, a future-proofed fiber optic infrastructure deployment is imperative to exceed the bandwidth demands of today, in readiness for the future.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, SiFi Networks propose to fund and build a specifically designed fiber optic cable infrastructure throughout the City of Fullerton, which will utilize SiFi Networks\u2019\u00a0FOCUS\u2122 system, a collection of proprietary and non-proprietary construction techniques that drives down the overall capital build cost of a FiberCity\u2122\u00a0 creating an environment where service providers are offered low cost access rates to the network, which in turn enables them to offer highly competitive retail pricing to the public.<\/p>\n<p>Scott Bradshaw, President SiFi Networks America commented<em> \u201cRecognizing the need for a fiber-optic network in Fullerton demonstrates the city\u2019s plan to foster innovation, drive job creation and stimulate economic growth.\u201d <\/em>Scott added <em>\u201cImplementing such a network will place Fullerton ahead of neighboring cities in terms of technological capabilities, enhancing their attractiveness to potential new residents and businesses.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>SiFi Networks is an infrastructure enabler and not an ISP (Internet Service Provider) and is therefore working with ISPs that have an interest in providing one or many services over the FiberCity\u2122 network to residents, businesses and all other entities throughout Fullerton at competitive rates.
