Mediacom Business, a division of Mediacom Communications Corporation, today announced an agreement to provide a dedicated fiber connection with Gigabit internet speeds to the Missouri Innovation Center. The agreement with the MIC is due in part to a company-wide initiative called Project Open Road, a significant capital expenditure to proactively connect more businesses to their network and provide the level of broadband capacity that is critical for commercial and research facilities like the MIC. Mediacom Business’ Gigabit+ Fiber SolutionsTM will provide the 1-Gig internet speeds to power next-level technology like precision agriculture, live augmented reality and other cloud-based services.
