PADUCAH, Ky., September 30, 2025 – RightFiber, a 100% fiber-optic broadband service delivering unprecedented multi-gig speeds, has begun to light up its new fiber network to residents and businesses in Paducah. The launch follows RightFiber’s $13 million investment to upgrade local service options with high-quality, future-proof technology.

“I’ve had the pleasure of visiting Paducah many times, and each experience has shown me what a truly special community it is, giving us great pride in this launch of services” said Heath Simpson, CEO of RightFiber. “RightFiber is committed to enhancing the lives and livelihoods of Paducah residents by bringing world-class broadband, while also investing in the community through long-term partnerships that make a lasting difference.”

RightFiber stands by its Right by You pledge, a promise to provide not only reliable service but also meaningful investments in the communities it serves. To reinforce this pledge, the company contributed $30,000 to the United Way of Western Kentucky last fall.

RightFiber’s 100% fiber network delivers the fastest speeds available, up to 5 Gig for homes and 100 Gig for businesses. The future-proof infrastructure enhances connectivity and performance today while adapting to evolving technology and customer demands tomorrow, thus ensuring reliability for remote work, smart-home devices and online gaming and shopping.

The project is on track for completion spring 2026, expanding access to next-generation fiber internet for even more customers across Paducah. Neighborhoods will be notified when services are available by door tags, mail, yard signs and door-to-door team members. Customers are also encouraged to visit RightFiber.com to check availability.
