The Cyta Fiber network is the only optical fiber network in Cyprus and it enables the transmission of data at very fast speeds. This innovative technology provides Internet access at speeds of up to 1Gbps! The Cyta Fiber Network will gradually reach 220,000 premises and it is expected to serve around 140,000 subscribers.
By making one of the biggest-ever investments in telecommunications in Cyprus, Cyta is playing an active role in the country’s transfer to the digital era, through the design and installation of the biggest and fastest optical fiber network.
Optical fibers are very fine strands of glass that use light to transmit data much faster than traditional copper cables. So, it could be said that, through optical fibers, data travels at the speed of light.
In today’s digital era, everything is changing about the way we learn, work, communicate and live, how we understand the world and ourselves in it. The Cyta Fiber network allows people to exploit the technologies of the future with new generation networks, thereby raising their standard of living and improving their business activities.
The tools and applications that people use on a daily basis to communicate with friends and family, the simultaneous connection of multiple devices (smartphones, tablets, game consoles, security systems, etc.), faster download/upload speeds, better quality streaming and so much more require, among other things, immediate and fast data transmission.
A fast and reliable internet connection using optical fibers greatly improves the whole experience in terms of quality and productivity.
