RCN connection types

RCN primarily uses a cable internet network, but may also use a DSL or fiber-optic network in select locations to offer gig-speeds. Depending on your location and which RCN internet plan you choose, your connection could include a cable, fiber-optic or DSL connection, or a hybrid or multiple network types.

RCN cable

RCN cable internet is available to 98% of those in RCN service areas. Speeds range from 50 to 500 Mbps. Cable internet offers faster speeds than DSL, but speeds can slow at peak usage times.

RCN fiber-optic

Fiber-optic internet often supports the fastest, most reliable internet service, and is the foundation for RCN’s Gig Internet. Available to roughly 18% of serviceable areas, RCN fiber-optic offers customers speeds up to 1,000 Mbps or 1 Gbps.

RCN DSL

Less than 5% of households in RCN-serviceable areas have access to their DSL service. As an older internet technology, DSL doesn’t deliver the speeds you’d get with cable or fiber-optic internet, but may offer lower-priced internet plans.

How fast is RCN internet?

RCN internet speeds start at 10 Mbps and max out at up to 1,000 Mbps in most RCN service areas.

Consider the amount of users in your home and the activities you enjoy when selecting a RCN internet plan.
