The new technology, XGS-PON, is expected to be available
throughout all of Sterling Ranch by the end of 2024 and will enable
internet speeds of up to 8 gigabits per second, 40 times faster
than the average advertised U.S. download speed*. This is possible
due to the investment by Sterling Ranch to have fiber into every
home in the community.
“Providing our residents with the ultimate in technology has
always been our vision for Sterling Ranch, and the introduction of
the XGS-PON technology is the latest example of how our goals are
continuing to be achieved,” said Brock Smethills, President of
Sterling Ranch Development Company. “Whether it’s for our many
residents who work from home and depend on fast internet speeds and
strong connections, managing their utility usage, water and energy
conservation, or home safety and security, we are developing a
‘smart city’ at Sterling Ranch.”
The XGS-PON technology is being made available at Sterling Ranch
by Lumen Technologies (NYSE: LUMN), through its premier fiber
internet service, Quantum Fiber. The multi-gig service delivers up
to 8 gigabits per second symmetrical internet speeds currently in
select locations with plans to add new areas throughout 2023 and
