Background of PUD 3’s Fiber Network

PUD 3 operates a wholesale fiber optic telecommunications network, which supports the operation of its electric distribution services.

Local telecommunications businesses have partnered with PUD 3 to resell broadband, telephone service, basic, and high-definition television service.

The PUD’s fiber optic network complements existing telecommunications services. It provides Mason County with fast and reliable business network connections. The PUD telecommunications system also has locations where businesses can house their internet and network services in a reliable and secure collocation facility.

If a business needs a special data circuit to connect with offices or customers outside Mason County, PUD 3 and the Northwest Open Access Network (NoaNet) can help meet that challenge with fast, scalable service.
