Wholly owned by the City of Coquitlam, QNet provides dark fibre connections from our colocation centre at City Hall directly to major local businesses and MDU (multi-dwelling unit) properties within 1000 meters of the existing 60 km fibre-optic infrastructure. Once an authorized client identifies a property for fibre connection, QNet assists the service provider with signing the necessary access agreements for final civil construction, in-building network connection, and service delivery to the residential MDU or commercial property.
QNet does not supply or compete in the delivery of application services to residential and commercial clients. For any service provider interested in expanding their reach in the Coquitlam region, QNet is an ideal partner for FTTP delivery of your services, including:
> broadband Internet access
> telecommunication
> media & entertainment
> HDTV
> videoconferencing & distance learning
> home security/surveillance
> telephony
> business communications
> grid computing
> energy savings
> telemedicine, and
> mobility improvements.
