Broadband Service Data

BBWireline

Broadband service depicts broadband coverage over any transmission technology, including fixed and mobile services. Fixed service is typically used as a home internet connection over DSL, other copper, cable, and fiber technologies. This data is open to be utilized for public analysis. Note that historic broadband coverage dates from Fall 2015. For broadband coverage previous to Fall 2015, see SBI Broadband Data.

Disclaimer

Broadband service availability and characteristics are depicted as derived from data assembled by the Utah Broadband Outreach Center mapping team. Data sources include biannual broadband service provider submissions and publicly available sources. Speeds shown are the 'maximum advertised' for the geographic features depicted, and must exceed 0.768 Mbps download and 0.2 Mbps upload to be included. Actual speeds may vary within service area, due to the granularity and currency of the data, technological limitations, and service plan limitations. Users of the site are encouraged to inquire directly to providers for current service availability and speed. All information presented on the Utah's interactive broadband map is for general reference purposes only and may contain errors and omissions. The State of Utah makes no warranty with respect to information available, express or implied, including but not limited to the fitness for use for a particular purpose. This data is managed by UGRC for the Governor’s Office of Economic Development Broadband Outreach Center.

Broadband service availability and characteristics are depicted as derived from data assembled by the Utah Broadband Project. Data sources include biannual broadband service provider submissions and publicly available sources. Data has been modified, where necessary, to meet broadband mapping standards set by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA).

Broadband service availability is displayed per NTIA specifications which include technology and speed categories and the aggregation of non-wireless service availability information to either U.S. Census blocks (where smaller than 2 sq. miles) or road segments.

Speeds shown are the 'maximum advertised' for the geographic features depicted, and must exceed 0.768 Mbps download and 0.2 Mbps upload (NTIA broadband definition) to be included. Actual speeds may vary within and along census blocks and roads, due to the granularity and currency of the data, technological limitations, and service plan limitations. Users of the site are encouraged to inquire directly to providers for current service availability and speed.
