UPN’s work provides KETV with an important connectivity solution for 7 Burlington Station. This connectivity supports our 24/7 mission to serve our community with excellence. The Unite Private Network team worked seamlessly with KETV’s engineering staff, providing multiple updates throughout the build out, and finishing on budget and on schedule.

We are very excited about Unite’s network expansion into Iowa. The business need for high-speed communications is growing at an astounding rate. UPN clearly recognizes that robust fiber-optic infrastructure is, and will continue to be the foundation by which information is accessed and shared. Coupling a suite of high-performance connectivity options from UPN with Enseva’s Next-Generation datacenter and cloud services catalog, there’s no doubt that major changes are coming to Iowa. It’s an absolute privilege to have them as a partner.
