Fast-Growing Ohio County Solves Online Traffic Congestion Problem
Glo Fiber Business Win, July 1st, 2025: Managers of one of Ohio’s fastest-growing counties selected Glo Fiber Business and 500 Mbps Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) to help power the county’s growth over the next five years and beyond. The DIA service has been deployed at four strategic office locations across the county.
From 2020 to 2023, the county’s population grew nearly 4%. Robust migration into the county brought with it increased bandwidth demand to support the county’s wide range of online services. Municipal leaders had grown increasingly dissatisfied with the network performance and customer support from their existing provider. Their search for a new internet partner ended when they met with Glo Fiber Business.
During that first meeting, the county’s Director and Glo Fiber Business Account Executive quickly established a strong working relationship. Not only does Glo Fiber Business provide all-fiber DIA and demonstrate a strong commitment to local customer support, it also supports community charities through employee involvement. The county’s leaders knew they had found their service partner.
DIA is a private, dedicated connection that provides county offices with consistent 500 Mbps connection speeds for both uploads and downloads, guaranteed. Unlike a shared public broadband connection that typically reduces network speed during times of heavy traffic, DIA speeds remain unaffected. With DIA speeds up to 100 Gbps, the county can easily upgrade its bandwidth as the range of online services expands and demand increases.
As its relationship with county administrators evolves, the Glo Fiber Business locally dedicated account support team will be there to provide guidance, technical expertise and 24/7/365 network service monitoring to ensure reliable performance and seamless growth.
“With more municipal and county-wide services available online, people expect a seamless and highly reliable internet connection. With our private DIA fiber connection, we not only deliver near 100% reliability, but we also guarantee it,” said Glenn Lytle, SVP of Commercial Sales for Glo Fiber Business.
