Follow on Google News | Parallel Infrastructure Offers New Fiber Optic Network along Florida's East CoastNew Superhighway Promises Broader Capacity and Faster Data Transmission.
By: rbb Public Relations According to Parallel Infrastructure President and CEO, Frank Chechile, the company is already receiving interest from potential customers who want to take advantage of this new broadband infrastructure. "It's been more than a decade since the last fiber cables were installed along this 351-mile corridor," Chechile commented. "These new, low-latency strands can transfer large amounts of data faster, and are in high demand." The nature of the new, state-of-the art fiber infrastructure will allow companies to increase their capacity to support their needs without incurring additional operational expenses for each incremental bit transmitted. The network system will serve companies such as telephone and wireless carriers, utility companies, cable companies, data centers, municipalities, and other educational and healthcare businesses that transmit large amounts of data on a regular basis. Additionally, the fiber will be used to support the needs of All Aboard Florida, the country's first privately owned and operated intercity passenger rail that will provide service along Florida's east coast. "There are added economic benefits to expanding Florida's broadband infrastructure," Parallel Infrastructure manages a total of 1,700 miles of ROW corridor across 22 states on behalf of a prestigious list of railroad landowners. According to Chechile, the company is investigating plans to construct similar fiber optic networks along these routes over the next 24 months.
