CNX Gets Fiber Broadband Development Contract for Warren County, Kentucky

Connected Nation Exchange received a contract to work on behalf of Warren County, Kentucky, to help provide fiber-based broadband services throughout the county, said a news release from CNX Wednesday. CNX will develop technical and financial models to find the best path for establishing public-private partnerships to invest in infrastructure and provide broadband services to county residents, businesses and community anchor institutions such as schools, libraries and public safety agencies, it said. The effort was accelerated by the start of construction of the state's new KentuckyWired middle mile network, which is designed to provide every Kentucky county faster, cheaper high-speed networks locally, it said.
