Englewood Mayor and EEDC Announce Completion of One Mile State-of-the-Art Wi-Fi

Public Wi-Fi Solution

Englewood—Mayor Frank Huttle III together with The Englewood Economic Development Corporation (EEDC) is excited to announce that a one-mile stretch of Englewood’s bustling downtown area has been blanketed with state-of-the-art high-speed public Wi- Fi. Englewood is believed to be the first municipali­ty in the country to benefit from ultrafast large-scale 802.11ac public Wi-Fi, allowing client device speeds to burst up to 100Mbps over fiber optic Internet band­width provided by the Englewood Hospital and Med­ical Center, Englewood’s largest workplace with over 2,400 employees.

The response to the activation of the outdoor, public network has been immediate and positive. “We turned on the Wi-Fi network and within the first few days, even before we made any announcement, we’ve had over 1,100 unique devices connect to and use the new Wi-Fi,” Adam Brown, Chairman of the EEDC said.
