Would you like to live in UTOPIA?

 

Centerville is part of an innovative and exciting new project in the State of Utah, UTOPIA (Utah Telecommunication Open Infrastructure Agency). UTOPIA’s mission is to provide an network of fiber optics to every home and business in it’s organization.

A number of Utah cities have seen the need for high speed data transmission abilities in their communities. It has not been widely available in the State, because the infrastricture is not in place. These communities realized that installing infrastructure is something government has done for a long time. Over the last century, government has built roads, water systems, sewer systems, etc. benefitting the community and add to its livability and economy. The new infrastructure is the information superhighway. Although private industry has tried to install this infrastructure, they have not been able to build it, for their own use, in an economically feasible manner. In the laboratory the capacity of fiber optics to transmit data has not yet been discovered. This means that the ability of fiber to transmit data may be unlimited. Other current infrastructure does not have the capacity of fiber including copper, cable and even wireless.
