Broken Arrow Residents Tap Into Metronet’s Fiber-Optic Internet

Nation’s Fastest Internet Service Provider Investing $35M in City

EVANSVILLE, Ind.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Metronet, deemed the nation’s fastest major ISP by PCMag, has officially begun connecting Broken Arrow, Oklahoma residents to its 100% fiber-optic internet service. Residents in initial construction areas can now sign up for ultrafast internet speeds of up to five gigabits per second, while businesses can access speeds of up to ten gigabits per second.

Metronet broke ground on its privately funded $35 million Broken Arrow construction project late last summer. As the network continues to expand neighborhood by neighborhood, more homes and businesses will gain access to Metronet’s multigigabit, 100% fiber-optic service.

“With access to Metronet’s 100% fiber-optic internet, Broken Arrow residents can unlock new possibilities for work, education, and entertainment,” said Kris Smith, vice president of city relations. “We are proud to connect our first customers in Broken Arrow and excited to continue investing in the community’s future.”

Metronet’s advanced fiber-optic network provides symmetrical speeds, enabling seamless upload and download performance for residents and businesses. Interested customers can visit metronet.com/ok/broken-arrow to sign up for service installation.

As construction progresses, Broken Arrow residents will see Metronet trucks in the area. Residents will receive communication by mail about construction activity in their neighborhood 30 days prior to the start date. Additional notifications, such as yard signs, will also inform residents of upcoming construction. Metronet crews will be identifiable by ID tags and branded vehicles.

Metronet plans to hire local market positions, including sales and service technicians, to support the Broken Arrow area. Those interested in joining the Metronet team can visit metronet.com/careers to search available positions and submit applications.

Metronet is committed to expanding its investment in Oklahoma, with Broken Arrow as the first of many cities to benefit from its fiber-optic network. To learn more, visit metronet.com/ok.
