EQS-News: Comcast California
Millions of Xfinity households in California will soon be waking up to faster Internet, thanks to Xfinity. The country's largest gigabit network is boosting speeds on its most popular plans beginning this week, providing customers with an even better connectivity experience as they stream the latest 4K blockbuster, game online, videoconference, and more, all at the same time. With this latest round of speed increases, Xfinity continues to provide unparalleled value compared to other providers - including significantly faster speeds and better reliability than mobile and 5G Home Internet. The announcement comes on the heels of Comcast's launch of the nation's largest- and fastest-ever multi-gig deployment that will reach more than 50 million homes and businesses with 2 Gbps speeds before the end of 2025. "We continue to bring California customers the fastest speeds possible by proactively investing in our advanced, high-performance network," said Keith Turner, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Xfinity. "The number of devices connected in Xfinity households has skyrocketed 12X since 2018. To keep up with today's constantly evolving technologies, modern homes require fast Internet, wall-to-wall Wi-Fi coverage, and a way to manage the household connectivity needs." Faster Speeds Rolling Out in California Beginning this week, new and existing customers will be able to take advantage of the following upgraded speeds*:
Comcast will also be doubling upload speeds nationally for all Internet Essentials Plus customers, from 100/10 Mbps to 100/20 Mbps. Internet Essentials Plus includes a cable modem, access to millions of WiFi hotspots, and unlimited data for $29.95 per month; and customers who qualify for the Affordable Connectivity Program can get this tier of service for free. Benefits Beyond Speed - Reliability and Security The benefits of Xfinity go beyond faster speeds. Xfinity's comprehensive connectivity experience combines a powerful network built to deliver Internet in the home, reliably and securely, with cutting-edge hardware and software.
A Network Built for the Future Comcast's Xfinity Internet service is delivered using Comcast's existing network architecture and the connections that are already in most customers' homes - no digging up yards required. Faster speeds will be just one of the consumer benefits made possible through Comcast's continued efforts to evolve its entire network to 10G. 10G is a next-generation technology platform supported by a global collaboration of companies in the Internet industry focused on building networks that stay ahead of consumer demand for connectivity. Recently, Comcast successfully tested the final component needed to deliver multi-gigabit symmetrical speeds - powered by 10G and DOCSIS 4.0 technology - throughout its entire network. In addition to fast speeds, 10G efforts will provide even greater network reliability, lower latency, faster troubleshooting, and increased energy efficiency.
