Sparklight®, a leading broadband communications provider, is bringing next-generation connectivity to White Oak with the construction of a state-of-the-art fiber-optic network. This advanced network will deliver multi-Gig internet speeds, providing residents and businesses with faster, more reliable service to meet their growing digital needs.
Construction on the fiber network began in August 2024 and is expected to be completed by late 2025. Once finished, the network will connect more than 2,500 White Oak homes and businesses, delivering the speed and reliability essential for work, learning, entertainment and innovation.
“Sparklight is invested in building a future-proof network that supports the evolving technology needs of the White Oak community,” said Kenny Walker, Sparklight Senior Director, South Central Region. “We know that reliable, high-speed internet is essential for both families and businesses, and we’re excited to provide a service they can count on—one that’s fast, future-ready and backed by local support.”
White Oak residents will have access to speeds up to 6 Gigs, while business customers can take advantage of symmetrical speeds up to 5 Gigs. In addition, customers will benefit from Sparklight’s intelligent whole-home Wi-Fi solution, powered by eero. With the eero Pro 6E, customers can enjoy seamless Wi-Fi coverage throughout their home, eliminating dead zones and ensuring a strong, consistent connection for all their devices.
Sparklight continues to invest in bringing fast and reliable internet to the communities it serves. Over the past three years, the company has invested more than $1 billion in network upgrades across its service areas. These enhancements pave the way for next-generation speeds, including the launch of 10 Gigabits (10G) and beyond. With intelligent Wi-Fi and a clear roadmap to DOCSIS 4.0, Sparklight is preparing to deliver speeds up to 10 times faster than today’s networks.
“At Sparklight, we recognize that internet needs are rapidly evolving,” Walker said. “With more connected devices in homes and businesses than ever before, we’re dedicated to providing innovative solutions with a seamless customer experience that is personal, proactive and local.”
