SHO-ME TECHNOLOGIES L.L.C.
The MoBroadbandNow "Sho-Me MO" Middle Mile Project seeks to enhance and expand a regional fiber optic network to deliver reliable, affordable and abundant interconnection points for last mile service in south-central rural Missouri. Today, many community serving institutions in south-central Missouri rely on copper-based Internet access, but need significantly higher speeds to enable distance learning, tele-health, and enhanced public safety applications. Sho-Me Technologies proposes to deploy a fiber-based middle-mile network in the 30-county region to expand broadband capabilities in under-served areas, stimulate economic growth and job creation, plus foster SmartGrid applications in partnership with electric co-ops for more efficient and secure energy use in the region.
