SPRINGFIELD INFINET

Springfield InfiNet is a suite of residential and business telecom infrastructure tools using publicly owned infrastructure in Springfield, Oregon to extend broadband internet services to our community. The goal is to increase community access to high-speed internet by enhancing the competitive landscape. This effort is supported by the Springfield Utility Board, the City of Springfield, Oregon and others... The voters of Springfield created SUB with the authorization to provide electric, water, gas and telecommunication services. Next-generation broadband is an engine for economic growth and community development. Leveraging public assets like SUB's unlit fiber optic network to enhance private competition is a way to wisely use resources for the benefit of the community. SUB's Board is also interested in bridging the "Digital Divide" by providing infrastructure options to make telecommunication services more affordable and accessible.
