creating regional broadband opportunities

the problem

Our region lacks critical data transport infrastructure.
Without this infrastructure we cannot compete economically.
Without this infrastructure our students are missing what students in other parts of the country take for granted.
Without this infrastructure, our research institutions
are constrained.
Without this infrastructure several communities on the Cape will have very limited access to broadband.
Without this infrastructure, we are missing a key
element needed to recover from a natural disaster.

the solution


The OpenCape network will provide reliable, redundant, and secure backhaul communications for public and commercial access networks in the Cape Cod region.

The network will support open access and promote competition.

This broadband network is designed to survive a hurricane and will also provide priority access to primary emergency evacuation centers in the region.
