Maine company to lay 1,100 miles of optic cable
(AP) — A new company is promising to lay 1,100 miles of fiber optic cable across Maine to help expand high speed Internet service to remote parts of the state.
Maine Fiber Co. will use $25.4 million in stimulus funding from the U.S. Department of Commerce to help build a high capacity rural broadband network.
Starting this spring Maine Fiber will begin installing the fiber optic cable for the Three Ring Binder project.
The project will provide broadband service within more than 100 rural Maine communities with 110,000 households, 600 community institutions, and 38 government facilities that are not served today.
