Spectrum Launches Gigabit Broadband, Mobile, TV and Voice Services in the River Oaks Community, California

HOLLISTER, Calif. — Spectrum today announced the completion of a fiber-optic network expansion project, bringing Spectrum Internet, Mobile, TV and Voice services to more than 40 homes in the River Oaks community. Spectrum was joined San Benito County Supervisor Kollin Kosmicki and other local leaders in San Juan Bautista for a roundtable discussion on the importance of access to broadband and how it contributes to digital equity.

“Today, residents in the River Oaks area of San Benito County can celebrate because Spectrum’s high-speed internet is now available for families and small businesses,“ said Kosmicki. “This project offers a broadband opportunity to a part of our community that sorely needs it."

Spectrum is already California’s largest broadband provider, serving 5.2 million customers and employing more than 8,000 residents in the state.

“A fast, reliable connection ensures that digital equity exists across our community, and Spectrum’s partnership with San Benito County is a great example of how the state’s California Advanced Services Fund program can work successfully,” said César Flores, San Juan Bautista Vice Mayor.

CASF grants further expand Spectrum’s rural construction initiative, the centerpiece of which is the company’s approximately $5 billion investment in unserved rural communities, which includes more than $1 billion won in the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) Rural Digital Opportunity Fund (RDOF) auction. The company’s RDOF expansion will provide broadband access to approximately 1 million customer locations as estimated by the FCC across 24 states in the coming years.

Spectrum Internet® has been consecutively ranked as one of the best internet service providers by U.S. News & World Report, and also earned the highest rating among the Best Internet Service Providers for Rural Areas, underscoring our ongoing commitment to connecting more communities from coast to coast. Spectrum Internet® also exceeded advertised download and upload speeds for all tiers measured — even during peak weeknight usage between 7 and 11 p.m. — according to the FCC’s most recent “Measuring Broadband America Fixed Broadband Report” issued in December 2021.
