Gigapower Expanding Fiber Internet to Eatonville, FL

AT&T to deliver best-in-class fiber service to thousands of local residents and businesses in Eatonville – offering a first to a town of firsts.

EATONVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Gigapower:

What’s the news?

At a time when broadband connectivity has never been more in demand or more critical to our daily lives, Gigapower is expanding its state-of-the-art fiber network to the town that built freedom, Eatonville, Florida.

Gigapower’s commercial wholesale, open access platform enables internet service providers and other businesses to access its multi-gig fiber network in select metro areas throughout the country.

This is made possible through the Gigapower joint venture between AT&T and BlackRock, through a fund managed by its Diversified Infrastructure business.

Why is this important?

As one of the first self-governing Black municipalities in the United States, Eatonville is home to a thriving community that is rich in history and a leader in change. The community boasts of strong independent and corporate businesses, expanding educational institutions and growing opportunities.

“Eatonville, with its rich history, is in an era of change, growth, and improvement. Bringing a fiber optic network to our community is another certainty that the change occurs in real time. Our hope is that this will provide residents and businesses with the access to reliable, high-speed internet they need to compete in today’s digital world,” said Historic Eatonville Mayor Angie Gardner.

As residents and business owners need more and faster broadband, AT&T Fiber can provide the connectivity needed to power where Eatonville works, studies and plays.
