As America targets efforts towards connecting every community to robust broadband - including the distribution of more than $40 billion in federal funds for building new networks - cable providers continue to do what they have always done: build out their networks to reach as many Americans as possible.
With network expansions continuing to happen nationwide, here are a few more examples of projects that work towards the national goal of connecting every American. To learn about other projects highlighted in previous blogs, be sure to check out NCTA.com.
