Leading Multifamily Property Manager Chooses
XFINITY’s Advanced Communities Network to Deliver High-speed
Internet and WiFi, XFINITY X1 and Voice Services to More Than 6,000
Units
Comcast today announced that Madison Apartment Group, a national
leader in apartment property management, is leveraging XFINITY’s
Advanced Communities Network (ACN) to provide 25 of its properties
with some of the most cutting-edge technology services available in
the market. More than 6,000 residents in Philadelphia, Atlanta,
Memphis, Lenexa, Harrisburg and other towns across the U.S. will be
able to take advantage of ultra-fast Internet and WiFi speeds,
reliable digital phone service and next-generation video
capabilities via XFINITY X1.
Headquartered in Philadelphia and with properties extending
across the East Coast and Midwest, Madison Apartment Group offers
an array of innovative resident services, flexible lease terms, a
24/7 national call center and dedicated management teams at each of
its communities. Many Madison Apartment Group properties have been
freshly rehabilitated, with completely renovated units, common
spaces and amenities – one of the most important of which is access
to the latest technology services to ensure that residents are
connected virtually anywhere within the building.
“People today choose apartments based on how well the technology
services match their increasingly connected lifestyles, so being
able to mirror the same services they would receive if they owned
their own home is a critical competitive differentiator for us,”
said Dean Holmes, chief operating officer for Madison Apartment
Group. “Comcast is giving our residents cutting-edge TV, Internet,
WiFi and phone services alongside virtually unparalleled customer
service, which has allowed us to focus on other aspects of the
resident experience instead of worrying about our technology
infrastructure. We are constantly acquiring new properties, and
Comcast’s vast network means it can accommodate us virtually
anywhere we go, both today and well into the future.”
As part of this agreement, many of these Madison Apartment Group
properties have committed to a 10-year collaboration with Comcast
that allows residents to choose the technology package that works
best for them. XFINITY Internet offers capacity that scales from 50
Megabits-per-second (Mbps) to gigabit speeds, XFINITY WiFi ensures
connectivity within individual units and common areas, and XFINITY
Voice offers the latest in digital phone services. XFINITY X1
features a one-of-a-kind interactive experience that includes
thousands of hit movies and the latest TV shows on-demand, as well
as apps that let residents share personal photos, videos and much
more.
In addition to delivering the full suite of XFINITY services,
Comcast also provides XFINITY Communities residents and staff with
a single point of contact for customer service and account
management. These dedicated community account representatives
(CARs) can help coordinate installations, troubleshoot disruptions,
process service changes and assist with move-in, move-out and
property transfers.
“Today’s residents bring numerous Internet-enabled devices
alongside high expectations for pervasive, fast wireless
connectivity, so an increasing number of multifamily property
owners are finding that responding to these demands with flexible
technology offerings is critical to both satisfying existing
residents and attracting new ones,” said Michael Slovin, vice
president, XFINITY Communities. “Our Advanced Communities Network
puts these properties ahead of the curve to not only impress the
residents of today, but also to meet the gigabit demands of
tomorrow, and we look forward to bringing these services to even
more leading-edge building owners and property managers across the
country.”
Comcast’s XFINITY Communities unit launched its Advanced
Communities Network specifically for multifamily properties. By
providing move-in-ready fiber and coax connectivity solutions to
existing buildings, greenfields, high-rises and single-family home
communities, XFINITY is able to accommodate capacity demands of up
to gigabit speeds while virtually eliminating the hassle of
retrofitting current wiring. In addition to fast Internet speeds,
ACN powers the full portfolio of XFINITY products, including its
innovative XFINITY X1, America’s fastest Internet, the fastest
in-home WiFi, XFINITY Home security and automation, and digital
voice.
