Canandaigua, NY, April 11, 2023 – Empire Access, a fiber internet service provider declared the fastest internet in the Northeast, is set to expand into Canandaigua, New York. The build out, which is set to be complete in the spring of 2023, will offer residents and businesses internet, TV, phone, and security solutions.

“We often find that when we build out towns and cities, the service that is currently available for the community does not meet the standards that we demand,” said Jim Baase, CEO at Empire Access. “We force our competition to improve their services by offering the community a better option for faster, lower priced internet service. That is what we plan to do for the Canandaigua community.”

Empire Access pairs its high-speed fiber optic internet with a complete array of telecommunication and security services:

  • Streaming TV delivering crystal clear, 100% HD picture quality, restart TV, Whole Home DVR, and much more
  • Home and business phone plans covering all your favorite features such as toll-free numbers, voicemail, hosted phone systems, and more
  • IoT security, home automation and 24/7 video monitoring with the ability to remotely, lock and unlock doors, control appliances, climate control, security management, and more right from your computer or smart device
  • Advanced business services including enterprise Wi-Fi, high-security fire walls, business emails, audio and video conferencing, dark fiber, and metro-Ethernet
