Altice USA (NYSE: ATUS), the provider of Suddenlink broadband, television, and phone service, today announces that as a result of major investments in its advanced broadband infrastructure, the company has launched faster speeds for Suddenlink residential customers in Grayson, Kentucky.
The company’s new 400 Mbps speed tier complements Suddenlink’s broadband offerings, which now include 200 Mbps and 100 Mbps service among other options, providing customers with choice and flexibility in selecting which broadband speed is right for them during a time when more people are working and learning remotely.
“Over the last few months, we have made major investments in our Suddenlink network and advanced broadband infrastructure to ensure we're providing our local communities with fast and reliable high-speed broadband," said Hakim Boubazine, Altice USA’s Chief Operating Officer and President of Telecommunications.
"In today's remote work and learning environment, more households and businesses are relying on their broadband connection to keep them connected to work, school, customers, friends, and family, and our Suddenlink broadband service makes it all possible."
The new speed tier is more than two times faster than the highest speed previously offered by Suddenlink to customers in Grayson, Kentucky. Suddenlink has been investing in its local network to support customers’ growing broadband needs, including powering today’s uber-connected smart homes, streaming content, engaging in video conferences, downloading files, and playing games on connected devices.
