Metronet is an independently owned fiber-to-the-premise provider that delivers business internet and voice over its own 100 percent fiber network. Two facts define it. It runs fiber all the way to the building rather than the copper-and-cable mix many carriers use, which it says supports symmetrical speeds, the same up and down, of up to 10 Gigabit. And it owns and builds the network itself, stating a presence available or under construction in more than 250 communities. Because the connection is fiber to the premise, performance does not fall off with distance the way cable can. On top of the internet it offers business voice, including SIP trunking and digital phone service, over the same network. For a buyer in its footprint, Metronet is a fiber-first provider that controls the line end to end.
Best for
- Businesses in Metronet's communities that want fiber-to-the-premise internet from the company that owns the local network.
- Organizations that need symmetrical upload and download speeds for cloud applications, video and large file transfers.
- Companies that want business internet and phone service on the same fiber connection and one bill.
- Buyers who value a facilities-based provider that installs and supports the line directly.
A business outside Metronet's fiber footprint will not be served by its network, so the first question is always whether your addresses are in a Metronet community.
What they offer
Business Connectivity. Fiber-to-the-premise business internet with symmetrical speeds up to 10 Gigabit over Metronet's own 100 percent fiber network, delivered directly to the building so performance holds regardless of distance from a hub.
Cloud Phone Systems. Business voice over the same fiber, including SIP trunking that connects an existing phone system and a full-featured digital phone service, with business-class calling features.

Good to know
- Metronet is facilities-based and fiber-only. Its value is tied to where it has built, so confirm your addresses are in a served or under-construction community.
- Because it owns the fiber to your building, installation and support come from Metronet directly. Ask about lead times and the service commitment for your location.

How buying works
The store is the easy part. Staying on the account is the job.
Anyone can show you logos. The reason to buy here is what happens on install night, and on the ticket you open nine months later.
