EDINBURG, Va. – Shenandoah Telecommunications Company ("Shentel") (Nasdaq: SHEN) announced the expansion of high-speed Internet access to homes in Buckingham and Greene Counties through Beam, its new fixed wireless broadband service. This expansion will benefit over 1,000 households and is part of a larger expansion that has already made service available to over 22,000 households this year. In New Canton, Virginia, an estimated 6-mile coverage radius is being broadcast from a communications tower located at 25290 N. James Madison Highway, providing coverage to over 300 households. In Ruckersville, Virginia, an estimated 6-mile coverage radius is being broadcast from a communications tower located at 580 Carpenters Mill Road providing coverage to over 600 households. Beam Internet targets rural, less densely populated areas of Shentel's footprint during a time when reliable, high-speed Internet has become more critical than ever before. Beam's fixed wireless broadband service is delivered over licensed 2.5GHz and 3.5GHz mid-band spectrum and leverages 5G-ready LTE technology, local communications towers, small cell sites, and Shentel's extensive regional fiber optic network. Beam offers download speeds up to 100 Mbps, and prices start at $60 per month with no hidden fees or surcharges.
