Metrocast upgrades broadband strength, speeds

BELMONT, N.H. - MetroCast Communications has announced a significant speed enhancement for its residential, broadband high speed data (HSD) customers, boosting its top downstream speed from 50 Mbps to up to 75 Mbps.

MetroCast has increased its top Internet speed five times in the last six years, and tripled it in the last three years. The 75 Mbps MetroCast offering is almost seven times faster than the national average* for downstream speeds.

"MetroCast customers now have access to the fastest Internet speeds available in our service areas," said Josh Barstow, Vice President of Advanced Services for MetroCast. "These speeds will allow customers to stream high definition video content, including "TV Everywhere," on multiple devices and to enjoy other demanding applications that require top broadband speeds for best performance."
