2 Gig Fiber Connections Coming Soon

Rosalia will be among the first in the nation to get 2 Gbps symmetrical fiber internet – up to 2,000 Mbps download and upload. That’s 26 times faster download and 200 times faster upload than the top speed currently available.

For a limited time, we’re offering our 1 Gbps or 2 Gbps package FREE for two months!*

Project Status

Construction is underway. A project map is included below.

September 22 Update:

  • Crews have finished burying the mainline fiber and service lines to existing customers.
  • Technicians are actively working on splicing the new fiber optic network.
  • When splicing is complete and equipment has been installed, we will begin installations.
  • We anticipate installations to begin in September or October.

Optical Network Terminal (ONT)

SKT technicians will mount a box called an Optical Network Terminal (ONT) on the exterior of current customer homes and businesses. Those interested in new service should use the form below to approve installation of the ONT or call us at 888.758.8976. Priority will be given to those who submit their approval first.

The ONT measures 12 inches by 10 inches by 4 inches. In addition, there will be a box installed to supply power to the ONT. This box will also contain a battery backup in case of a power outage. It measures 8 inches by 7 inches by 4 inches.

The next step is burying the fiber optic line and connecting it to the home or building. It will not be necessary for homeowners and business owners to be present while this work is performed.

Fiber Internet Benefits

Super Fast

Fiber internet outperforms any other broadband technology, reaching unmatched speeds with low lag time and sending data as fast as about 70% the speed of light.

Improved Connectivity

Fiber connections can easily support remote work, education, telehealth, video conferencing, streaming, gaming, e-commerce, and more for individuals and families.

More Reliable

Fiber is the most reliable internet technology, delivering a signal less susceptible than cable, copper, or spectrum-based services to interference or deterioration of performance due to distance or climate conditions.

Future-Proof

Fiber is capable of handling the increasing demand for bandwidth, allowing service to remain affordable and efficient for years to come. 

Supports Businesses

Fiber gives businesses access to the bandwidth needed to quickly store and access information in the cloud, connect with remote employees and clients through video calls, maintain their online presence through websites and social media, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Who will I see working in my area while this project is underway?

    SKT technicians will perform portions of the work; however, due to the scope of this project, SKT has hired contractors to assist with the engineering design and construction. All SKT contractors will have an “SKT Contractor” identification on their vehicles.

  • What is fiber internet?

    Fiber to the Premises (FTTP) refers to the installation and use of fiber optic cables to carry digital information directly to homes and businesses. These cables can contain anywhere from one to hundreds of individual fibers, which are long, thin strands of pure glass about the diameter of a human hair.

  • Will fiber change how the current SKT services work?

    Fiber will replace the infrastructure that currently provides telephone and DSL internet services in your area. There will be no change in the way telephone service works. SKT high-speed internet customers will no longer need an internet modem, as the ONT eliminates the need for one.
