WASHINGTON, Oct. 8, 2024 - A national broadband association said that fiber connections in the United States are growing faster than at any time in the nation’s history.
The Fiber Broadband Association, headquartered in Washington, D.C., filed comments with the Federal Communications Commission on Monday regarding the FCC’s annual Section 706 Notice of Inquiry. The association noted in its comments that access to fiber broadband has expanded at an unprecedented level.
“In just two decades, all-fiber connections have grown from virtually ‘nothing’ to reach more than 50% of the locations in the U.S.,” said FBA President and CEO Gary Bolton, “This makes fiber the fastest growing fixed communications network technology in the nation’s history.”
