Moving Medina County Businesses Forward with Fiber
The Medina County Fiber Network is a critical component of our region’s communication infrastructure.
It’s comprised of hundreds of miles of fiber-optic cables that allow area residents, businesses, schools, government agencies and health care organizations to move data across the world at the speed of light. This technology is exponentially faster than traditional phone lines and cable company connections, and it opens the door to a whole new world of applications and connectivity.
