Spectrum to bring fiber optics ultra highspeed internet and cable to Lexington County

West Columbia, SC 08/06/2024 - Spectrum, the #1 rural internet provider in the nation * , today announced the launch of Spectrum Internet, Mobile, TV and Voice services to more than 570 homes and small businesses in Lexington County. Spectrum’s newly constructed fiber-optic network buildout in Lexington County is part of the company’s approximately $5 billion RDOF-related investment in unserved rural communities, partly offset by $1.2 billion in the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) RDOF auction.


The company’s RDOF expansion will provide broadband access to 1.3 million customer locations across 24 states in the coming years. Spectrum has also won more than $700 million in state broadband expansion subsidies, which, combined with Spectrum investment, will connect another 300,000 homes and small businesses.


“Spectrum is bringing gigabit broadband to unserved communities in South Carolina and across America through RDOF,” said Tim Williams, Vice President of Construction at Spectrum. “Our investment is making it possible to deliver the high-value broadband, mobile, TV and voice services now available in Lexington County. We are providing local residents and small businesses superior connectivity at highly competitive prices, backed by a team of skilled local technicians and 100% U.S.-based customer service.”

Broadband speeds up to 1 Gbps, money-saving Mobile options and 85,000 free On Demand choices Spectrum Internet delivers speeds up to 1 Gbps and Advanced WiFi for residential and small business customers, featuring starting speeds of 300 Mbps, with no modem fees, data caps or contracts. Spectrum Business Internet offers customers 1 Gbps download speeds, with 300 Mbps and 600 Mbps options. The company has also begun a network evolution that will provide gigabit upstream speeds and multiple gigabit download speeds across its entire 41-state service area.


Spectrum Internet exceeded advertised download and upload speeds for all tiers measured — even during peak weeknight usage between 7 and 11 p.m. — according to the FCC’s most recent “Measuring Broadband America Fixed Broadband Report” issued in January 2023.


Along with multiple broadband options, Spectrum services now available also include Spectrum Mobile ™ and Spectrum TV ® . Spectrum Mobile is the nation’s fastest-growing mobile provider ** and combines with Spectrum Internet and Advanced WiFi to provide seamless connectivity inside and outside the home. Spectrum Mobile provides customers access to nationwide 5G at great value, with Unlimited lines starting at $29.99 a month, as well as By the Gig options.
