Internet speeds keep getting faster. And customers keep expecting more.
Since the days of dial-up, it’s been a race to keep up. At AeroNet, we’ve been part of that race for 16 years, leading the way in Puerto Rico with advanced fixed wireless technology for businesses.
Wireless is fast. It’s flexible. And it’s reliable. But even wireless has limits.
So, we took things further.
That’s where fiber optic tech comes in. It gives us:
Microwave wireless links can hit up to 10 Gbps. But fiber? It can go well beyond 400 Gbps.
So, we built something new. Gigabit1.
Gigabit1 started as a minor upgrade in Hato Rey. Today, it’s a full-blown fiber network reaching:
We wanted to bring ultrafast internet to homes and businesses. And we wanted it to be affordable.
That meant doing things differently.
Big projects need significant funding. But we didn’t wait for investors or handouts. We grew organically.
We focused on buildings because one installation can serve many users, keeping costs down and value up.
From 1 building in 2015 to 90+ by 2017, Gigabit1 grew fast. And we’re not done.
Gigabit1 is a hybrid network. It blends the best of both worlds:
• Microwave wireless for speed and reach.
• Fiber optics for power and stability.
We built this model before it was trendy, even before Google Fiber started doing it.
We’re already testing pre-5G tech, too. That will help us expand beyond buildings into new zones across Puerto Rico.
We’re not just chasing speed. We’re building intelligent, resilient networks that last.
More buildings. More speed. More possibilities.
Because at AeroNet, we’re always pushing forward. And with Gigabit1, the future is already here.
