RUTHERFORD COUNTY, TN - Comcast reports they are accelerating their deployment of faster internet service to homes across Murfreesboro. According to the information released by Comacast, Rutherford County will be receiving the latest updates to its Xfinity 10G Network.

These network enhancements will benefit customers at all speed-tiers and price points, according to the internet provider. With these improvements, Comcast is also rolling out new download speeds of up to 2 gigabits-per-second (Gbps) and up to 5x-to-10x faster upload speeds in Rutherford County.

Rutherford County is the latest community in Tennessee to roll out these Xfinity 10G Network enhancements, setting the stage for the introduction of new symmetrical multi-gigabit internet options that can be delivered across Comcast’s existing networks with less cost.

“Comcast continues to anticipate customer demand,” said Jason Gumbs, Regional SVP at Comcast. “Through our focus on network innovation, we are excited to begin deploying enhanced, ultra-fast and reliable speed tiers to customers in Rutherford County and keep more Tennesseans connected with the speeds and technology they need.”

Comcast has invested nearly $629 million in technology and infrastructure improvements in its Tennessee network over the last three years. You can read more details about Comcast's 10G Network HERE.

Recently, Comcast accelerated the transformation of its network to a cloud-based architecture that is fully prepared for robust 10G technologies and DOCSIS 4.0. This network architecture will enable Comcast to deliver symmetrical, multi-gigabit speeds to both residential and business customers, services that technically limited fixed wireless providers will not be able to deliver. Comcast’s ongoing network evolution also furthers its commitment to provide a cleaner, greener Internet by doubling network energy efficiency by 2030. Comcast estimates this will avoid the equivalent amount of electricity needed to power a half a million homes for a year.
