Shentel to expand fiber network throughout South Central Pennsylvania
(UC) — Glo Fiber, powered by Shenandoah Telecommunications Company (Shentel), has agreed to expand its fiber optic network to the Waynesboro, Shippensburg, and Greencastle boroughs in Pennsylvania.
The construction is set to begin later this summer to deliver an all-fiber choice for high-speed, reliable service to over 8,300 homes and businesses throughout South Central Pennsylvania. Glo Fiber has been rapidly expanding their multi-gigabit fiber network in Pennsylvania with service already available in Hanover and Carlisle, and construction underway in York and Lancaster Counties.
"The Glo Fiber option will strengthen the infrastructure of the Borough and provide additional resources for our municipal facilities," Kevin Plasterer, manager of Shippensburg Borough, said.
Glo Fiber provides multi-gigabit internet access, streaming TV, and phone service in the Mid-Atlantic region, with optional wall-to-wall Wi-Fi service that allows customers to connect anywhere in their home or business. Using Wi-Fi 6 technology, customers can enjoy faster speeds, higher performance, and better support for multiple devices throughout the home with the assurance of advanced protection and automatic updates.
"We are excited to begin this regional project in Franklin County," Chris Kyle, vice president of Industry and Regulatory Affairs at Shentel, said. "With this expansion to South Central Pennsylvania, more residents and businesses will have access to reliable, 100% fiber-optic service. Fiber is considered the gold standard in this environment and we are proud to offer it as a competitive option in these boroughs."
Using Shentel's 7,600-mile regional fiber network, Glo Fiber can ensure high speeds, low latency, and fair pricing. The company has earned a reputation for providing outstanding local customer service across its markets, including the growing list of communities in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, and West Virginia.
