186 Addresses in Western York County Connected
with $778,000 Investment
186 homes and businesses in two rural areas of western York
County are gaining access to Comporium's fiber-based multi-Gigabit
services. The company has spent the past few months extending its
fiber optic network into the Timbers neighborhood of York and to
addresses around Bate Harvey Rd. in Clover. Comporium constructed
more than 8 miles of fiber optic network to serve these addresses.
This project provides customers the ability to access internet
speeds of up to five Gigabits per second.
The completed projects required nearly $778,000 of investment
and will greatly improve the quality of life for these homes and
businesses. Comporium combined its own private investment with
state-issued funds from the American Rescue Plan Act to complete
this project. This approach ensures that the company can reach the
maximum number of addresses with its state-of-the-art network.
“Our partnership with the South Carolina Broadband Office
continues to allow us to reach these very rural addresses,” stated
Comporium Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer
Matthew Dosch. “Serving these addresses with our fiber optic
network means that we can provide customers with our fastest
internet speeds, including two and five Gbps offerings.”
Comporium continues to work with state and federal agencies to
find ways to upgrade service to more rural customers. Recent
upgrades were the result of American Rescue Plan Act and Rural
Broadband grants. These were made possible through funding from the
South Carolina Department of Commerce and administered by the South
Carolina Broadband Office within the Office of Regulatory
Staff.
Residents and businesses in York County may place an order and
schedule installation appointments through Comporium’s website at
