Race Communications Expands to Palmdale
"It's an exciting time to bring fiber internet to Palmdale. As a city with previously limited options for fast and reliable service, we're proud to be expanding our coverage area to the people of Palmdale," said the Vice President of Construction and OSP at Race Communications.
"Residents and business owners will now be able to take advantage of all Race has to offer, including the fastest internet speeds in town, reasonable rates, and California-based customer support," the VP added.
First User Praises 10 Gbps Service
Race reported that the first Palmdale resident to receive the 10 Gbps service, a video game developer, praised the affordability and reliability compared to his previous provider. The stable connection will greatly benefit the remote work, the customer said.
Future Expansion Plans
The initial phase of the project in Palmdale aims to connect over 6,000 homes, with Race actively expanding its coverage throughout California. Flyers, yard signs, and other notifications will keep residents informed as the rollout progresses, the company said.
