IQ Fiber to deploy fiber optic network in Georgia on over $50 million investment
(UI) – IQ Fiber is deploying its high-speed network in Savannah, G. Design and engineering work is complete, and construction of the over $50 million project will begin in the coming weeks, with first customers coming online in 2025.
“We are excited to welcome IQ Fiber to Savannah and appreciate their investment in bringing advanced fiber-optic internet service to our community,” said Savannah Mayor Van R. Johnson, II. “Their presence will offer residents more choice, helping to ensure that Savannah remains competitive and connected in the digital age.”
IQ Fiber's expansion into Savannah marks its third major market, following successful deployments in the Jacksonville and Gainesville, Florida metro areas.
IQ Fiber’s 100% fiber-optic network is capable of symmetrical speeds of up to 10 gigabits per second and is far superior to telephone or cable-based internet. The network is built on the latest optical networking technology, allowing the company to provide the fastest internet speeds available while also supporting the explosive growth in internet usage and demand.
“We are thrilled to bring our 100% fiber-optic network to Savannah,” said Ted Schremp, CEO of IQ Fiber. “We’ve seen tremendous demand for a better internet experience—one that’s fast, reliable, and hassle-free. Our success in Jacksonville and Gainesville demonstrates that people are ready for a fresh, no-nonsense option, and we’re excited to bring a modern internet choice to Savannah."
