Privately owned and funded, Quintillion has built the first and only system of its kind, which serves the American Northwest and North Slope Arctic regions. Quintillion is the owner/operator of this world class telecommunications system. As a wholesale provider, Quintillion offers high-speed broadband to local providers across the state of Alaska. In December 2017 Quintillion completed its 249-mile terrestrial fiber optic cable, beginning north of Fairbanks, Alaska and terminating in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. The completion of the terrestrial fiber build provides a high-capacity, low latency system, uniquely positioned to serve the needs of the oil and gas industry working on Alaska`s North Slope. Quintillion`s Phase 2 expansion will establish a state-of-the-art fiber optic route between Alaska and Japan to Washington State . This project addresses the need to create a diverse route out of western Alaska and allow future expansion into additional Asian markers. When completed, this system will improve existing network capacity and reduce latency. In addition to Quintillion`s planned Phase 2 expansion, Phase 3 will extend from northeastern Alaska, through the Northwest Passage and connects Alaska to Canada, and extends to Europe”, , with an opportunity for further extension. This expansion will create a diverse and low latency route between Asian and European markets.
