PHILADELPHIA, PA — Comcast Business, in their steadfast support for small businesses, has amplified internet speeds by up to three times the existing rates, at no additional expense. This strategic move is a timely response to the growing digital demands faced by organizations as they increasingly rely on consistent Internet connectivity for their operations.
Comcast Business – on Tuesday – announced high-speed Internet for customers across the United States. The freshly launched ‘Ultimate Speed for Business’ plan offers up to triple the customary speeds, showing Comcast’s commitment to drive small businesses forward in the digital age. This comes as an addition to the deployment of the multi-gigabit symmetrical business Internet speeds powered by Full Duplex technology in selected markets.
Effective immediately, Comcast Business customers – both new and existing – can leverage these amplified speed increases for their businesses. For instance, the ‘Essential’ plan boosts speeds from 50 Mbps to 150 Mbps, ‘Standard’ from 100 Mbps to 300 Mbps, ‘Performance’ from 250 Mbps to 500 Mbps, and ‘Advanced’ from 500 Mbps to 800 Mbps. This offering also extends to upstream speeds for Comcast Business’s Gigabit Extra and 2 Gigabit plans.
With Comcast Business, small businesses enjoy the highest Internet speeds in more locales at budget-friendly rates. Additionally, customers have the privilege of 24/7 support, an all-in-one gateway that enables private business WiFi with Gig speeds, a dynamic IP address, Xfinity hotspot service, and unlimited data. Extra features allow customers to tailor their plans with advanced cybersecurity for their connected devices and 4G LTE backup for business continuity during unforeseen circumstances.
Christian Nascimento, Vice President, Connectivity and Digital Experience, Comcast Business, stressed the significance of a reliable network for the modern business. He noted that an underperforming network could lead to lost opportunities and revenue and further emphasized Comcast Business’s commitment to providing unrivaled connectivity solutions. Their new initiative – Ultimate Speed for Business – offers greater connectivity, value, and reassurance to the customers.
In the context of its consistent network evolution, Comcast Business is introducing a new suite of multi-gigabit, symmetrical Internet products facilitated by DOCSIS 4.0. This innovative technology – Full Duplex – makes use of the same network spectrum to substantially escalate upstream speeds without compromising downstream speeds.
Presently, Comcast Business has initiated the deployment of the next-generation symmetrical Internet in Atlanta, GA; Colorado Springs, CO; and Philadelphia, PA. Further expansion to new markets across the country is expected over the coming years.
Comcast’s fiber-based network – which reaches over 60 million homes and businesses nationwide – underpins Tuesday’s speed increases. This exceptional Internet experience is a result of consistent research, technological breakthroughs, and substantial investments exceeding $20 billion since 2018 alone.
Advancements in DOCSIS 4.0 represent the latest in Comcast’s streak of pioneering achievements as they work towards the implementation of this technology. Last April saw the first-ever live test of Full Duplex DOCSIS. In 2022, Comcast conducted a world-first live trial connecting a business location in Philadelphia to its live network, complete with a DOCSIS 4.0-enabled 10G node and multiple cable modems. By February 2023, the company had achieved yet another significant milestone with the largest and fastest multi-gig deployment in the nation.
In summary, Comcast Business’s commitment to empowering small businesses is evident in its investment in network improvements and technological innovations. Their recent initiative to triple internet speeds for customers without extra costs is a prime example of their efforts toward offering superior connectivity solutions.
