Starting May 2024, fiber internet will be available to Victor residents and businesses following success in current Victor neighborhoods
Victor, NY, May 2, 2024 – Empire Access, a Northeast fiber-based internet service provider, announces the expansion of its fiber network further in Victor, New York. Empire Access’ network will pass 300 additional addresses in Victor and will offer fast, reliable internet connectivity at affordable rates to both home and business owners. Service in Victor is expected to be available by the end of the month.
Empire Access specializes in providing internet services to rural communities and has been expanding across regions in Northern Pennsylvania and Upstate New York. Victor residents can expect fiber internet with speeds from 500 Megabits per second (Mbps) up to 2 Gigabits per second (Gbps), TV, phone, and security with increased access to internet services at leading speeds thanks to Empire Access’ regional fiber network.
The expansion into Victor is consistent with Empire Access’ strategy with a larger regional focus, including other New York communities such as Binghamton, Elmira, and Vestal, along with Scranton and Williamsport in Pennsylvania. Smaller communities like these are often overlooked when it comes to their internet, with unreliable connectivity and speeds not matching those found in major metropolitan areas. The speed and reliability of fiber internet can attract new businesses and enable working from home, maximizing the potential of these smaller communities and helping them grow into local hubs.
“As a locally-based company, we understand the needs of rural communities for improved internet without compromising on costs,” said Jim Baase, CEO at Empire Access. “We chose to increase our coverage in Victor because of the overwhelmingly positive reaction from our customers in nearby communities. Our aim is to provide both homeowners and businesses with affordable resources not always available. With fiber internet access, residents can experience reliable streaming, TV, gaming, and more. Likewise, business owners can utilize our services to enable their own digital activities and keep up with the growing demands placed on them with online services.”
Empire Access’ mission to bring modern connectivity to rural communities in the Northeast stems from its local roots. Headquartered in Prattsburgh, NY, Empire Access is native to the areas it serves. The company staffs local 24/7/365 customer service teams to ensure it meets the needs of community members with a deep personal connection.
