Broadband Connectivity

The Northeast Service Cooperative has been connecting critical service site through its Northeast Minnesota Middle Mile Fiber Project. Construction will continue this year to connect additional sites through the project.

Circuit Testing and Network Provisioning

This year, the Northeast Service Cooperative has been turning up services across the region. Crews continue to work on circuit provisioning and testing.

Core network work moves forward

Cyan equipment installers have been working around the fiber ring in the past two weeks to get the core network operational. Testing will continue to take place, as well as circuit provisioning and turn-up on the network.

Broadband Excitement

Cyan equipment installers have been working across the region moving forward on turning up the regional ring. NESC has been shadowing Cyan while visiting sites being served by the project. NESC will continue identifying and labeling the network entity devices as part of the field work. Testing will follow, which would start the beginning of February. This will ensure fiber is fully functional from end to end! Circuits have already starting to come online.
