Google Fiber Selects Huntsville to Test Milestone 20 Gig Internet Product Launch

May 23, 2023/in Community Development, Featured, News, Resource, Technology/by staff reports

Last fall, Dinni told you that I was testing our 20 Gig product in my home. Yes, I have the speed test to prove it, but to be honest, my household can’t really test the limits of what that much internet speed can do. We tried — we streamed as many World Cup games in 4K as we had devices, but we didn’t even come close to using it all.

That’s why we launched a test with our friends at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, and they’ve been doing a lot of things at their School of Science and Engineering from tackling big data sets to making virtual reality less virtual and more reality (more on that soon — stay tuned).

But we know that’s just the beginning (like our recently launched 5 Gig and 8 Gig products). That’s why we’re looking for eight more organizations  — businesses, non-profits, educational institutions — to help test 20 Gig in Austin, Huntsville, Raleigh-Durham and Salt Lake City.

So what makes your organization or company a good candidate to test a symmetrical 20 Gig connection?

  • You’re downloading or uploading massive datasets
  • You’re conducting research that really needs significantly more bandwidth
  • You tell us! — You’re working on some future-focused technology we haven’t even heard of, but it needs a lot of bandwidth

If that sounds right, let us know here that you are ready to give REALLY, REALLY, (okay, one more REALLY) fast internet a try.

This is a contributing blog post from Google Fiber’s Head of Multi-gig & Commercial Product, Nick Saporito. To view the original blog, please visit the link here. Huntsville companies can apply here to give this incredibly fast internet speed a try.
