“Our communities, customers and partners are anxious for the
possibilities driven by a 10G service infrastructure; TEC is
equipped and prepared to help them fully leverage our network to
meet and exceed their expectations,” said James Garner, Vice
President of Operations at TEC. “ADTRAN has been our trusted
networking partner for fifteen years, consistently delivering the
solutions, technology and support we need to grow our business, and
to ultimately improve the lives of our customers.”
Throughout the years, TEC has deployed a wide array of ADTRAN’s
solutions to help improve the range and reach of its network. This
includes leveraging several applications within the Mosaic
Subscriber Suite, which offers the right mix of insight, management
and analytics to make device installation, activation and service
restoration easier, while improving the subscriber experience.
“In recent years, we have witnessed exponential advancements and
growth in the technologies surrounding broadband internet delivery
to business and residential customers,” said John Cole, Director of
Network Operations at TEC. “Today, we are excited to introduce 10G
XGS-PON to TEC service areas. It allows TEC to serve fiber-based
broadband services to residential homes and businesses at speeds up
to 10G. These speeds are often used by service providers as the
primary internet connections that serve thousands of customers.
With XGS-PON, we now have the ability to deliver 10G to each
building we connect.”
“TEC’s commitment to delivering the network its customers need
is demonstrated by its decision to deliver the first 10G network
that spans these rural communities,” said Mark Ogden, Regional Vice
President of Sales at ADTRAN. “ADTRAN’s commitment to TEC is that
we’ll continue to deliver solutions and services they need to help
them build their best network today, tomorrow and into the
future.”

century throughout Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee. Currently,

copper connectivity and over 1,300 miles of fiber-optic cabling in
its rural markets and expects to aggressively transition to a 100%
