(Finance) – It is already operational in Casal Velino the new public ultra-broadband telecommunications network. Open Fiber has completed the construction work on the network infrastructure that allows citizens, businesses and professionals of the three municipalities in the province of Salerno to access the Internet with effective and cutting-edge services. The intervention focused in particular on less densely populated areas and so far without ultra-fast connectivity.
The ultra-fast network available today in Casal Velino reaches 2,940 real estate units through FTTH technology (Fiber-to-the-home, the optical fiber extended right up to the inside of buildings), the only solution capable of guaranteeing connection speeds of 1 Gigabit per second and even higher. Among the buildings listed, 14 public administration offices also stand out, starting with schools.
This is a strategic investment for the digitalisation of territories does not burden the municipal budget. The technological infrastructure, in fact, has been financed with regional and state funds as part of the Ultra Broadband Plan (BUL) managed by Infratel Italia, a company of the Ministry of Business and Made in Italy, with the coordination of the Campania Region. The impact of laying the fiber is very low, thanks to innovative and sustainable excavation techniques that allow Open Fiber to reuse existing infrastructure.
“Thanks to the FTTH network and the Open Fiber cabling project, Casal Velino is equipped with an ultra broadband network capable of delivering ever-increasing volumes of data traffic, allowing for fast and enabling use of connections for smart working, streaming of HD content, online purchases and remote access to public administration services”, he explains Pasquale Ciccarellifield manager of the company led byCEO Giuseppe Gola.
