As the Official Tech Partner of Saugerties, Archtop Fiber Will Bring Fiber Broadband, Tech Jobs and New Business Opportunities to the Town

Kingston, New York, October 28, 2022 – Archtop Fiber, a provider of multi-gig, 100% fiber Internet and phone service to residential and business customers across the Northeast, today announces a strategic partnership with the Town/Village of Saugerties to invigorate its community with the development of a state-of-the-art, all-fiber broadband network. Archtop Fiber will serve as the Town/Village of Saugerties official partner to bring more connectivity and tech-focused jobs to the area.

Set to break ground in early November, the new all-fiber network will span 250 fiber miles, empowering the businesses and residents of Saugerties with the fastest, most reliable and affordable Internet service. The announcement comes as the company begins its fully funded acquisition and fiber broadband strategy across New York’s Hudson Valley region, including the City of Kingston, Town of Ulster, among many others.

“As the demand for faster and more reliable Internet access skyrockets across our community, it is critical we develop the advanced and expanded broadband infrastructure needed to power everyday life here in Saugerties,” said Bill Murphy, Mayor of Saugerties. “With decades of experience building broadband networks across a wide variety of locations, Archtop Fiber is the ideal partner to ensure our thriving city keeps up with the pace of technology. Their local approach and focus assures that Saugerties is well positioned with best-in-class broadband now and well into the future.”

The Saugerties market marks the first of many new development projects for Archtop Fiber, which was founded by an expert team of telecom industry veterans with a mission to build a world-class fiber multi-gig broadband service platform. Backed by an investment of more than $350 million by Post Road Group, Archtop will play a leading role in the reinvigoration and redevelopment of communities in the Northeast, including Saugerties, and will serve as a reliable neighbor, trusted customer advocate and job creation partner.

“Nestled between the Hudson River and the Catskills, Saugerties is the perfect location to begin our journey to advance our mission of bringing state-of-the-art Internet access to the communities across the Northeast that need it most,” said Jeff DeMond, Chairman and CEO of Archtop Fiber. “We are proud to serve as the official technology partner for this thriving community, and the network we are developing will open new doors — bringing the digital world to Saugerties’ businesses, schools, libraries, health organizations, farms and community centers.”

“This is an exciting time for the community of Saugerties. The experts at Archtop Fiber have the knowledge and experience to give our town the Internet access it deserves,” added Fred Costello Jr., Town of Saugerties Supervisor. “The new fiber network is going to take Saugerties to greater heights, bringing new tech jobs and invigorating our community with new opportunities for connectivity and growth.”

In addition to the Hudson Valley area, the company’s rollout plans include markets in New York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and areas across the southeastern U.S.
