7 Arms Rural Telephone and Nex-Tech Driven To Provide State-Of-The-Art Technologies To Rural Kansans Why? Because Kansas is home! Forty years ago, state-of-the art telecommunications meant single party dial telephone service. With the development and deployment of fiber optics, and the explosion of the Internet, wide area networking, and Digital TV, that definition has changed. The cable that connects customers must provide more than POTS (plain old telephone service). As a result, Rural Telephone/Nex-Tech is bringing advanced, state-ofthe-art broadband services to its customers by way of fiber-to-the-premise (FTTP), wireless, satellite, mobile wireless and various other fiber technologies. Rural Telephone and Nex-Tech Deploying fiberto-the-premise technology in our current and future construction projects. Offering broadband services to residents of central and western Kansas. Bringing voice, video and data through multiple technologies to remote regions.

Nex-Tech s Lightning Jack High-Speed Internet allows this experienced nurse to pursue her Master s Degree through Fort Hays State University s Virtual College while still working as a full-time RN at the local hospital. Advanced video solutions are available today via Nex-Tech s advanced fiber-based network. Digital video, video-on-demand, high definition and local content provide an incomparable viewing experience and NO satellite dishes to clutter the pristine prairie landscape! Bundled communication services from Rural Telephone/Nex-Tech are just what the doctor ordered to help this stay-at-home mom run an active household and a medical transcription business. Rural Telephone is committed to state-of-the-art voice technology. Our upgrade strategy involves fiber to the premise (FTTP) technology for unsurpassed clarity and capacity. Custom calling features provide control, convenience and security for residential and business customers alike.
