I live in Windsor and I've been seeing Sonic trucks all over the place doing what appears to be laying down underground cable of some kind. Am I correct in assuming that Windsor may be getting fiber service soon? ...or is it something else?
It’s something else. We are delivering dark fiber to all of the public schools in Windsor, which they’ll initially light at 10Gbps, enabling a much more connected learning environment. And because they’ll have dedicated dark fiber, they can increase the speed of their equipment to 20, 40, 100Gbps or beyond, as needed. It’s a great bit of dedicated infrastructure for the schools.nostromo wrote:I live in Windsor and I've been seeing Sonic trucks all over the place doing what appears to be laying down underground cable of some kind.

We have similar builds underway in Sebastopol, Petaluma and Santa Rosa. Each of these projects helps us build fiber further into these communities, supporting fiber to the premise projects now and in the future. And many of them interconnect via the backbone we built which serves SMART’s rail signaling system, from Northern Santa Rosa to San Rafael.
The more applications we can get onto the fiber network, enterprise businesses, municipal City/County facilities, schools, etc, the further the fiber builds go into these communities, facilitating residential projects too.
Most folks think of Sonic in the context of our residential focus, but there are a lot of other layers that we develop to make all of that possible.
