ISSAQUAH, WASHINGTON –– November 16, 2011–– The Highlands Fiber Network (HFN), a Fiber-To-The-Home (FTTH) network for the Issaquah Highlands community, will offer faster residential Internet service, including download connections of 1 Gigabit per second, making Issaquah Highland’s internet service the fastest of any residential neighborhood in the country.
Launching December 1st, 2011, the Issaquah Highlands community will be able to take advantage of faster internet speeds like the new HFNQuantum 100 plan, with download speeds up to 100 Megabits per second and upload speeds of 20 megabits per second, for less than $55 a month. The Quantum Gig service will provide qualifying residents with a gigabit connection to the Internet and 100 megabit upload speeds for less than $200 per month.
ISOMEDIA Inc., the Internet services provider and network operator for the Highlands Fiber Network, developed these new faster service plans in response to residents' feedback and increasing demands for network and Internet bandwidth.
"We are truly excited to be bringing one of the fastest networks in the country to the residents of the Issaquah Highlands, and at a considerably lower price than any other service, including Comcast and CenturyLink." said Steve Milton, CEO|CTO of ISOMEDIA. "With this change HFN has made a huge leap forward over other Internet providers, providing a faster, better service at an unbelievably low price to the community."
The development of the new HFNQuantum service plans were unanimously supported by both the owners of Highlands Fiber Network, Port Blakely Communities, and the community’s HFN Advisory Council, made up of community residents.
"This new faster internet service will bring more convenience and connectedness for our residents,” said Rene Ancinas, President of Port Blakely Communities and CEO of Port Blakely Companies. “As a vibrant community known for progressive features and amenities, this enhances Issaquah Highlands’ attractiveness as a very desirable place to live, work and play.
No other network in the United States has speeds this fast for prices this low. The HFNQuantum product line of up to 10, 100, or 1000Mbps allows the Issaquah Highlands residents to take advantage of speeds so fast that websites on the Internet itself will have a hard time keeping up. Issaquah Highlands residents will have the fastest Internet speeds anywhere – with a service that is unparalleled for its speed, reliability, and price.
