DZS Velocity fiber access systems chosen by RTA

DZS (DZSI) announced that Rural Telecommunications America, RTA, has chosen leading-edge DZS Velocity fiber access systems and Helix connected edge Wi-Fi solutions to deliver “gigFAST ” internet services to 10,471 unserved rural broadband subscriber locations in Bastrop County, Texas. RTA, which manages more than 15,000 fiber route miles across its 25-state footprint, is leveraging a BOOT II $43 million grant to bring a state-of-the-art fiber-to-the-premises access network to this rural Texas county, east of Austin. Residences in these formerly unserved and underserved locations will now have the opportunity to subscribe to symmetrical gigabit services, with the potential for multi-gigabit services in the future, while businesses will have access to symmetrical gigabit, 10 gigabit, and 100 gigabit services.
