ImOn Communications, a leading provider of high-speed Internet services across Iowa, will soon begin the construction phase of Marshalltown’s 100-percent fiber Internet network.
Earlier this year, ImOn announced that the company would be bringing residential and business fiber Internet services to the City of Marshalltown. Since then, ImOn’s network engineers have been busy working with city officials and designing the network. ImOn plans to begin the construction phase of the fiber network this summer.
The new network will be fiber-to-the-home, meaning each address will have its own individual fiber cable connecting it to the larger network.
Residents will soon see ImOn trucks and construction crews in their neighborhoods. Each resident will receive a letter in the mail and a door hanger notification before construction starts in their area.
“Our team is eager to begin work on our Marshalltown network,” said Patrice Carroll, President and CEO of ImOn Communications. “Through our collaboration with city officials, conducting our own market research, and talking with residents, we know there’s a desire in the community to have more choices for Internet providers. We’re excited to be that alternative and to make fiber widely available in Marshalltown for the first time.”
After construction is complete, Marshalltown homes will have access to download and upload speeds as fast as 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps). Marshalltown businesses will have download and upload speeds up to 10 Gbps available. The first customers are expected to begin receiving service in early fall of 2024.
