The company has also set in motion plans to launch a next level of FibreOP residential services with a 60 Mbps download and 15 Mbps upload Internet service that will be available in January 2010.
“This new FibreOP Internet service offers an even faster option with unprecedented download and upload speeds, both of which are crucial for the fastest two-way ultimate broadband experience,” said Kelly Duplisea, VP Customer Solutions, Bell Aliant. “The ability for customers to upload quickly is a tremendous advantage, and we’re proud to continue to offer the best Internet experience for our customers.”
