Open Fiber, the company responsible for the construction of the FTTH fiber infrastructure controlled by Cassa Depositi e Prestiti (Cdp), has completed the work of construction of the network infrastructure in the municipality of Accettura in the province of Matera.
The new network will offer residents, businesses and professionals in the area high-performance Internet access, with particular attention to less populated areas previously without ultra-fast connections.
1.275 real estate units covered
The ultra-fast network in Accettura has you covered 1.275 real estate units thanks to FTTH technology (Fiber-to-the-home), which offers connection speeds of 1 Gigabit per second or more. Among the buildings affected there are also 5 public administration offices, starting with schools.
The Bul plan continues
The installation of the ultra-fast network in Accettura is a strategic investment for digitalisation of the area and does not entail additional costs for the Municipality. The funding comes from regional and state funds in the context of Ultra Broadband Plan (BUL), managed by Infratel Italia, a company of the Ministry of Business and Made in Italy, with the supervision of the Basilicata Region.
Furthermore, the environmental impact of laying the fiber has been minimized thanks to innovative and sustainable excavation techniques and the reuse of existing infrastructure by Open Fiber.
“Thanks to the FTTH network and the Open Fiber cabling project, Accettura is equipped with an ultra broadband network capable of delivering ever-increasing volumes of data traffic, allowing for fast and enabling use of connections for smart working, streaming of HD content, online purchases and access to remote public administration services,” he explained Mariangela Viceconte, field manager of Open Fiber.
