SaskTel has announced that it will soon launch SaskTel infiNET™ service in Moosomin, as a result of the Crown corporation’s $200 million Rural Fibre Initiative. SaskTel’s infiNET service allows customers to access the latest digital tools and technologies to socialize, learn, pursue economic opportunities, connect to healthcare and other government services. SaskTel anticipates it will begin connecting homes to infiNET service in select areas of Moosomin by the end of December.
Powered by SaskTel’s fibre optic broadband network, infiNET service delivers internet speeds reaching close to a Gigabit per second (Gbps), allowing subscribers to surf, stream, and share however much content they want. Plus, the infiNET network has the capacity to grow to support the evolving needs of SaskTel’s customers and increasing popularity of cloud services, video streaming, and smart technologies.
The Rural Fibre Initiative is a multi-phase program that will see SaskTel bring infiNET service to over 110,000 residents and businesses living and operating in more than 130 rural communities. Once the announced phases of the Rural Fibre Initiative are complete, SaskTel’s infiNET network, which is already Saskatchewan’s largest fibre optic broadband network, will reach approximately 80% of all households in the province.
Over the coming weeks, SaskTel will provide information to Moosomin residents on how and when they can schedule their upgrade to infiNET service.
