We're bringing fiber to rural Hoosiers!
8:21AM April 03, 2018
Since 1939, SCI REMC has provided south central
Indiana with essential services, even in remote rural locations. Recently,
you—our members—asked us to investigate the option of providing high-speed
internet to our service area. We heard you, and I am thrilled to announce the
launch of SCI Fiber. SCI Fiber brings members high-speed internet up to 1
Gigabit per second. That’s 1,000 Megabits per second—100 times faster than the
national average.
Fiber is known for being future-proof, meaning
the fiber we install today will be able to handle increased data loads as the
need for more and more speed grows. Our fiber network is also more reliable than
other types of networks, less prone to interference and complications from
lightning and other natural elements. Fiber also tends to raise the property
value of homes by as much as 3.1%.
Every SCI REMC member who preregisters on this
site will be eligible for free installation when SCI Fiber gets to their area.
You will also receive a wifi router so you have the best possible wireless
connection in your home or business. This will allow you to have multiple
devices from desktops, laptops, tablets, smartphones, TVs, and more all
connected at speeds that will make everyone happy.
SCI Fiber also introduces phone service! Our
phone service will provide crystal clear connections, including reliable access
to 911 emergency services and advanced calling features.
South Central Indiana REMC has a proud history
of bringing power to the area, and we look forward to the future as we bring
fiber to the communities we know and love.
Sincerely,
James Tanneberger
President & CEO, SCI REMC
