East Hartford Fiber City

Construction is on hold until further notice.

East Hartford FiberCity® is more than just a superfast fiber connection to homes and businesses. It will future-proof your city for generations to come, boost its economy and enable Smart City applications to make for a great place to live, work and play.

East Hartford FiberCity® is being built citywide, meaning we pass each and every home and business, enabling every household opportunity to connect, closing the digital divide.

SiFi is permitted to use the Town’s right-of-way (ROW) to extend the system throughout the entire Town. The Town’s ROW is typically (but not always) located on the house side of the sidewalk. The actual location will vary depending on the address.  For example, in most traditional subdivisions, the ROW line is 10 feet outside of the curb on the road – meaning that a 10 foot wide strip of grass (or grass & sidewalk) are located in the Town’s ROW.  SiFi is permitted to install system conduit anywhere in the Town ROW, including under the road pavement and in the grass areas outside of the pavement.

It has come to the Town’s attention that a few residents have been approached by individuals indicating that they represent Frontier or Verizon and that they are signing up residents to the “Town’s Fiber Internet service”. Please be advised that Frontier and Verizon fiber projects are not at all a part of the fiber optic network being installed by SiFi Networks (SiFi) in collaboration with the Town of East Hartford.
