Another Segment Added as Broadband Network Shows Its Robustness

3:16PM October 12, 2018

Another piece of the Roanoke Connect puzzle has been put into place and is ready for the scheduling of home installations. Segment 10 is the eighth segment in the network that is now functional. It covers NC Hwy 125, Sykes Lane and Old 125 Road in Halifax, North Carolina.

The continued progress on the Roanoke Connect network comes despite the massive storms that have tested the system's robustness. The ability of Roanoke Electric's wireless network to withstand extreme weather conditions has been demonstrated during Hurricane Florence and Tropical Storm Michael. Despite the wind and rain, broadband Internet service to subscribers remained in place with virtually no downtime throughout both storms and was restored quickly in the few instances when interruptions occurred.
