Colorado Springs is a highly-competitive and crowded broadband market. StratusIQ wanted to set the bar higher for internet service and was able to get ahead of its competition with ADTRAN. The ISP wanted to deploy 10Gbps services to support the rollout of IPTV, offer a more efficient service set, and leverage the symmetrical upload and download speeds of XGS-PON as a competitive differentiator for local businesses as the adoption of cloud services increases and streaming video has become critical to daily work and entertainment at home.
“Service scale and a streamlined, inclusive migration from GPON services to a more flexible 10G PON service infrastructure is what ADTRAN is able to uniquely deliver to the market,” said Craig Stein, Vice President, Americas and Head of Global Business Development at ADTRAN. “We are able to take our technology leadership one step further by consistently delivering innovative, carrier-grade solutions and support services that address industry challenges so our customers can meet their needs on schedule.”
StratusIQ is one of the main providers for a new Air Force Academy Visitor Center that will bring new economic stimulus to the area by featuring a hotel, office space, restaurants, retail and more. Its goal is to transform the visitor experience to honor the contributions of cadets to the U.S. Air Force and the country and allow for a major expansion of exhibits and improved audio-visual for a museum-quality experience.
