Fiber internet uses thin strands of glass or plastic to transmit data as pulses of light, allowing information to travel at extremely high speeds over long distances with minimal signal loss. This is fundamentally different from cable internet, which sends data through coaxial copper cables originally designed for television, and from DSL, which transmits data over traditional telephone copper wire lines. Both cable and DSL connections are prone to slower speeds during peak usage hours, signal degradation over distance, and inconsistent upload performance. Fiber internet, like what Cascade Communications provides, delivers symmetrical speeds, meaning your upload speeds are equal to your download speeds. This matters enormously for video calls, cloud backups, remote work, and online gaming. Fiber is also far more resistant to weather interference and electrical noise, which contributes to the consistently reliable connection Cascade Communications customers experience every day.

As a gig-capable provider, Cascade Communications delivers fast, reliable and consistent connections through a 100% fiber-optic network designed for today’s connected homes and businesses. Cascade Communications fiber network provides symmetrical speeds, so your upload speeds are just as fast as your download speeds. That means a better experience for everything from streaming and gaming to video calls, working from home, and uploading large files.

Cascade Communications has built a reputation for dependable, high-quality internet service by investing in a 100% fiber optic network rather than relying on the aging copper cable infrastructure. Fiber connections are inherently more stable and reliable than traditional copper-based technologies like DSL because they use fiber-optic cables to transmit data using light rather than electrical signals. Fiber is less susceptible to interference and signal degradation, helping deliver consistent performance throughout your connection. Cascade Communications has been serving eastern Iowa since 1954 and launched its Fiber-to-the-Home network in 2009, giving the company decades of experience operating and maintaining a modern fiber infrastructure in the communities it serves. If you ever need help, you have access to hometown support from a team that knows your community and is there when you need them.
