Understanding 1 Gig Fiber Internet
Mercury helps you tailor your internet speed to fit the unique needs of your household.
1 Gig fiber internet delivers download and upload speeds of up to one gigabit per second, making it significantly faster than average broadband speeds. With ultra-fast speeds and low latency, 1 Gig fiber provides superior performance.
From security systems and video doorbells to smart refrigerators, TVs, and tablets, the average household now has more than 20 connected devices.* Mercury’s 1 Gig fiber is built for homes with 11 or more devices, delivering smooth 4K streaming, lag-free gaming, and crystal-clear video conferencing.
Fiber internet relies on fiber optic cables that transmit data as light signals. This technology improves internet speeds, reliability and security. Fiber optic cables are also less susceptible to environmental damage from the elements.
