Expansion Bringing High-Speed Xfinity Internet to Thousands of New Homes and Businesses
December 11, 2023 — As part of the nation’s largest and fastest multi-gig deployment, Comcast announced today that it is expanding the Xfinity 10G Network to new areas in South Miami to reach an additional 10,000 homes and businesses. South Miami is the latest community in Florida to roll out these Xfinity 10G Network enhancements, setting the stage for the introduction of new multi-gigabit symmetrical Internet options that can be delivered across Comcast’s existing networks without tearing up yards and roads.
This expansion represents another area in Florida where Comcast is bringing its Xfinity 10G Network — the broadband network built to power the rapid rise in Internet consumption today and in the future. The expansion encompasses parts of the City of South Miami and unincorporated areas of Miami-Dade.
“Comcast has proudly served residential and business customers throughout the Miami-Dade area for decades and we continue to invest in this community,” said Jeff Buzzelli, Senior Vice President for Comcast’s Florida Region. “We are thrilled to expand to South Miami, not just to connect more homes and businesses, but to help empower every click, stream and download using the absolute best network available today.”
“Connectivity for businesses of all sizes is a must-have for success in today’s marketplace, especially in a constantly growing and evolving market like Miami,” said Rich Rollins, Vice President of Business Services for Comcast’s Florida Region. “From online presence to a point-of-sale system, having high-speed, reliable, and secure Internet access is how business gets done, and we are proud to power South Florida businesses of all sizes.”
Comcast expects to complete the expansion by mid-2024. Residents should visit Xfinity.com/MyTown and enter their address to get additional details on services and when they will be available.
