Kansas City Builds GigE Network

Om Malik writes on his Next Generation blog:

North Kansas City, Missouri which already has some fiber infrastructure is now planning to build a Gigabit-to-the-Premise (GTTP) broadband network. The LiNKCity network is expected to go live sometime this spring. City officials believe that the new network, will help attract more businesses to the city. World Wide Packets is the equipment provider for this phase of the buildout. The construction of the much-anticipated liNKCity fiber optic network began on December 5, 2005

GTTP doesn’t necessarily mean that every home will have access to a gigabit ethernet service.
