The internet has become a utility; it’s just as important as water, ”said Sam Fitzgerald, vice president of technology at TruVista. “We see great broadband opportunities ahead – both for TruVista and for the communities we serve. Technology partners like ADTRAN and initiatives like RDOF are helping us to deploy cutting-edge FTTH services that will connect students to education, employees to jobs and our communities to economic growth. ”
