Regional broadband provider Great Plains Communications is hoping to stay ahead of the rising traffic curve, leveraging a mix of government and internal funding to upgrade and expand its network with 10-gig capable fiber.
The operator is a privately-owned broadband provider, serving enterprise, carrier and residential customers across 11 states in the Midwest with 13,500 miles of fiber. Its residential footprint for internet, voice and video services is primarily concentrated in Indiana and Nebraska, with wholesale fiber for last- and middle-mile access extending further to parts of Colorado, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Minnesota, Missouri, South Dakota and Wyoming.
