Lightcurve Launches Ultra-Fast 8 Gbps Internet Service in Tacoma

Tacoma Residents Gain Access to the Fastest Internet Speeds Available

TACOMA, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Lightcurve, the local internet provider delivering the fastest speeds at unbeatable prices across Washington, today announced the launch of its new 8 Gbps download internet service in Tacoma. The new blazing-fast service makes Lightcurve the first internet provider to offer the Tacoma community download speeds of up to 8 Gbps, supporting working from home, gaming, streaming and much more. Currently offered in select communities in Tacoma, Lightcurve plans these upgrades to be more widely available over the coming years.

"This capability demonstrates the benefits of the partnership we have with Lightcurve," said Jackie Flowers, Director of Tacoma Public Utilities. "Investing and upgrading to these new capabilities reflect the benefits of working with a local operator like Lightcurve. We're glad to see this level of connectivity coming to our community."

Lightcurve operates network infrastructure in Tacoma under a long term lease agreement with Tacoma Public Utilities, including providing network upgrades and improvements under the agreement.

Lightcurve continues to invest in its network infrastructure across Washington, having previously launched 2 Gig internet service across its fiber footprint, and now introducing 8 Gbps download services to homes in Tacoma. Following successful 8 Gig fiber service launches in Centralia, Chehalis, and Central Washington—including Ellensburg, Kittitas, and Selah—this Tacoma expansion represents the latest milestone in the company's commitment to bringing its fastest internet service to communities statewide.

"High-speed Internet is a must-have to meet the demands of a world where everything is connected," said Beth Barnes, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Lightcurve. "From AI-powered applications and cloud computing to ultra-high-definition streaming and competitive gaming, customers are using more bandwidth than ever before. By bringing 8 Gbps downloads to Tacoma, we're ensuring families and at-home businesses have the capacity they need not just today, but for years to come. We look forward to extending these capabilities more broadly in the coming years."
