MANKATO, Minn. — April 21, 2022 — With speeds 10 times faster[1] than the national average, FidiumSM Fiber, a new gigabit broadband internet service from Consolidated Communications (NASDAQ: CNSL), is primed to give residents of Mankato, North Mankato and Eagle Lake a speedier, more user-friendly internet experience.
Residents can sign up now to be first to be notified when Fidium lights up in more than 10,000 homes across Greater Mankato this year.
“Fidium is the future of Consolidated’s consumer fiber internet service and we’re proud to offer it at a competitive price point to Greater Mankato,” said Kari Juni, vice president of customer service for Consolidated Communications. “Fidium’s reimagined customer experience includes more choice, control and personalization, but most importantly, Fidium delivers the super-fast speeds that customers want and need. Fidium marks an important new service that will transform the way people live, work and learn from home.”
“High-speed, reliable internet is a major economic driver for communities,” said Mark Dehen, mayor of North Mankato. “I’m very pleased North Mankato residents and businesses will have the option for gigabit, fiber internet service, and I’m grateful Consolidated continues investing in the broadband infrastructure in our community.”
“The last few years have taught us just how important the internet is to our community,” says Mankato Mayor Najwa Massad. “I’m excited that a fiber, high-speed internet service option will soon be available to our communities. This important technology can help reduce barriers, increase accessibility, benefit education, further build community connections and contribute to the economy.”
Fidium was created to give customers exactly what they want (like straightforward plans and pricing with superfast speeds) and nothing they don’t (like shared bandwidth, data caps, contracts, required bundles, and hidden fees).
