Creating digital equity in underserved and rural communities is a key initiative in Cox’s
multibillion-dollar annual network investment. This expansion will allow Cox to provide
ultrafast, reliable, symmetrical internet service across a 100% fiber-optic network to homes and
businesses in additional parts of Logan County.
“We are thrilled at the prospect of bringing new internet access and capability, including
symmetrical gigabit broadband, to families, students and businesses in this area,” said
Oklahoma City market vice president Bonnie Lopez-Crowe. “Working with local leaders, we will
take a giant step in bridging the digital divide in the community with a state-of-the art network
and essential services.”
The Expansion in is part of an overall commitment of a multibillion-dollar annual infrastructure
investment over the next several years to build a 10-Gigabit capable, fiber-based network that
will power the next generation of internet users. Expanded fiber to the premise combined with
breakthrough enhancements to cable’s broadband DOCSIS 4.0 technology will enable Cox to
deliver multi-Gigabit symmetrical speeds in the coming years to both residential and business
customers to support a growing host of high bandwidth applications.
Additionally, the Cox Oklahoma team is partnering with cities, towns and counties to address
specific community objectives to reach more unserved and underserved communities through
improved internet access and adoption. Through these public-private partnerships, Cox can
help local governments remove adoption barriers and extend service to areas with no access to
ensure that households of all economic statuses can unlock the possibilities that high-speed
broadband has to offer.
In the last 10 years, Cox has invested more than $19 billion in network and product upgrades to
deliver powerful high-speed residential internet, TV, phone, and home security and automation
services, as well business broadband offerings such as its cloud and edge computing services.
“Connectivity is at the heart of everything we do. Communities have trusted Cox since our
founding in 1898, and today we remain committed to providing the most powerful high-speed
internet, TV, phone, and home security and automation services, as well as a growing a suite of
business offerings,” said Lopez-Crowe. “We are excited to bring these important services to
even more residents in Logan County and hope this latest expansion will help Cox continue to
meet customers’ needs across Oklahoma.”
