PRIME FiBER and AT&T have begun building a high-speed fiber network in Sun City, Arizona, as part of AT&T's initiative to reach 60 million fiber locations in the U.S. by 2030. The deployment will also cover Peoria and Phoenix, with service expected to begin soon. This project forms a crucial part of a wholesale fiber broadband services agreement between the two companies. PRIME FiBER's broader initiative aims to deploy high-speed fiber internet across the Arizona metroplex.

PRIME FiBER, an open-access fiber infrastructure provider, has started construction on a high-speed fiber network in Sun City, Arizona, in collaboration with AT&T. This project marks a significant milestone in PRIME FiBER's expansion in Arizona and represents the second U.S. state where the company is actively building open-access infrastructure, following its deployments in Florida [1][2].

The Sun City project is part of a broader deployment by PRIME FiBER to deliver high-speed fiber internet across the Arizona metroplex, including Peoria and the City of Phoenix. The initiative aligns with AT&T's goal to reach 60 million fiber locations in the U.S. by the end of 2030 [3].

George Karatzis, Chief Build Officer at PRIME FiBER, stated, "This is a big moment for Sun City. Our team is proud to officially kick off construction and begin delivering the kind of infrastructure that helps communities thrive. We're focused on building networks that bring faster speeds, greater reliability, and long-term value to local residents." [1][2]

Caleb Deerinwater, SVP Transformation and Enablement at AT&T, added, "We are committed to delivering fast, reliable internet for our customers across the country. Our collaboration with PRIME FiBER in Sun City will bring us one step closer to our goal of reaching 60 million fiber locations in the U.S. by the end of 2030." [1][2]

The first service areas in Sun City are expected to go live in the coming months, bringing high-speed internet to the residents and businesses in the area. This project is a testament to the growing demand for high-speed internet and the importance of infrastructure investments in driving economic growth and innovation.
