Lafayette, Louisiana-based LFT Fiber, formerly known as LUS Fiber, says it continues to expand its fiber footprint and introduce faster symmetrical speed tiers to many Louisiana locals long trapped on the wrong side of the digital divide.

LUS Fiber was launched in 2004 as a direct response to consumer outrage at substandard, expensive citywide broadband access. Last year LFT changed its name from LUS Fiber to LFT fiber.

Back in February LFT Fiber announced it had finished a planned network expansion project into Eunice, Louisiana, bringing fiber access to many underserved locals for the first time.
