Puerto Rico’s main broadband providers recently took part in the “IPv6 Workshop for Broadband Providers to begin preparing for the island’s transition to IPv6 — the next generation Internet Protocol.
Critical Hub Networks announced Wednesday the U.S. Department of Commerce National Telecommunications and Information Administration’s approval of a route change for the Puerto Rico Bridge Initiative’s (PRBI) islandwide network, as well as the expansion of the network’s interconnection points from 16 to 24.
The areas of health care, education, and public safety in eight central and eastern Puerto Rico towns will have access to faster and more affordable broadband services in coming months through the network interconnection agreement reached between Critical Hub Networks’ Puerto Rico Bridge Initiative project and the Central Eastern Technological Initiative, or Inteco.
