Local Parks and Rec Department in Ohio Digitizes New Community Center with Glo Fiber Business’ DIA, Voice, Managed Network Services
Glo Fiber Business Win, May 21, 2026: A parks and recreation department in Ohio has chosen Glo Fiber Business to deliver modern connectivity solutions to two locations, including its new community center. The facility will be served by the company’s Dedicated Internet Access (DIA), Hosted Voice, and several Managed Network Services, including Managed Switch, Managed WiFi and Managed Firewall, and an adjacent park will also receive DIA service.
The department, which serves over 5,300 families, was searching for a strategic partner as it builds its new community center. The facility will offer indoor sports facilities for a variety of interests, including a track and pickleball courts, but it will also boast state-of-the-art amenities. Sports simulators and multipurpose rooms are also part of the mix, along with an interactive educational lab to provide children with hands-on experience in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Such a project demands high-speed, reliable connectivity to ensure a seamless experience for visitors of the center.
The department recognized Glo Fiber Business as a strong local partner capable of providing the solutions it needed, and the company’s representatives demonstrated their comprehensive knowledge of the technology and solutions that will form the digital backbone of the new community center. Working with the on-site Glo Fiber team, the department selected 20Mbps DIA to service the park, which features fields for a variety of team sports, including baseball, softball, and football. The complex also offers tennis courts, concession stands, restrooms, playgrounds and more.
For the community center, the department opted for two 1Gbps circuits DIA, which will provide superior security, speed, reliability and more. Additional Glo Fiber services will support the center’s ongoing operations, as well as meet the needs of visitors utilizing the space. Hosted Voice is a cloud-based solution providing staff with the advantages of VOIP unified communications. Managed Switch ensures peak performance through granular, Layer 7 application visibility and remote diagnostic tools, and Managed Firewall helps protect users and the center itself from outside cyberthreats. In addition to those critical behind-the-scenes services, Glo Fiber will provide Managed WiFi for high-performance wireless connectivity and secure access for guests and employees alike.
"We are thrilled to support the department as they build a facility that truly puts the community first," said Glenn Lytle, SVP of Commercial Sales at Glo Fiber Business. "By providing a secure, high-speed digital backbone, we are helping ensure that everything from the STEM lab to the sports simulators delivers a seamless and enriching experience for every visitor."
