TELUS is expanding its Fibre service to Sylvan Lake

In a significant move, Telus Communications Inc., a global leader in communications technology, has partnered with F3 Networks Canada Inc., a Canadian telecommunications company specializing in dark fiber infrastructure solutions, to establish a new fiber-optic infrastructure in Sylvan Lake. This infrastructure will serve as the backbone of Telus' world-leading 5G wireless network in the area.

The project, estimated to cost $40 million, includes over 150,000 metres of fibre construction and is expected to enable faster internet speeds and enhance wireless coverage in Sylvan Lake. This development marks a significant milestone in Telus' ongoing efforts to bring Canada's fastest and most reliable internet technology to more communities.

F3 Networks, headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, and registered with the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) as a non-dominant telecommunications carrier, is committed to providing reliable, secure, and scalable infrastructure that enables seamless communication and data transfer.

Telus PureFibre services, which will soon be available to 95% of homes and businesses in Sylvan Lake, are 85% more energy-efficient than copper and more durable against extreme weather and environmental factors. These services enable clients to build and manage their own private networks, ensuring full control over their infrastructure.

Jordan Young, President and CEO of F3 Networks, and Chelsey Higdon, from Telus Public Relations, are the key contacts for media inquiries regarding this project. For more information about F3 Networks Canada Inc. and its services, visit their official website at www.f3networks.ca.

Telus, a world-leading communications technology company operating in more than 45 countries and generating over $20 billion in annual revenue, has contributed $1.8 billion in cash, in-kind contributions, time, and programs since 2000, earning the distinction of the world's most giving company. The company is passionate about leveraging technology to enable remarkable human outcomes and is committed to putting customers and communities first.

More than 1 million homes and businesses in Alberta have access to Telus PureFibre services, including over 120,000 premises in rural areas. F3 Networks offers services such as dark fiber access, network design and consulting, and maintenance and support. This partnership between Telus and F3 Networks is set to revolutionize connectivity in Sylvan Lake, empowering businesses and residents to thrive in an increasingly digital world.
