Fiber-Powered Xfinity & Comcast Business Services Now Available Across Northwestern and Southeastern Washington County

WASHINGTON, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Comcast has completed a network expansion project that now offers Xfinity and Comcast Business services to more than 2,300 previously unserved homes and businesses across Washington County, Pennsylvania. Residents and business owners now have access to multi-gigabit, symmetrical Internet, mobile, entertainment, home security and advanced business connectivity solutions from America’s smartest and most reliable, converged network. The project was made possible through a public-private partnership with the county and funded in part by American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds allocated to expand access to high-speed Internet.

Residents can visit Xfinity.com and businesses should visit ComcastBusiness.com to see if their address is eligible for service.

For years, many residents and businesses in Washington County have had limited access to reliable high-speed Internet. Now, more communities in northwestern and southeastern Washington County can connect to the same fiber-powered network that serves more than 65 million homes and businesses nationwide – a major milestone in bringing Xfinity services to communities that have historically had limited connectivity options. Xfinity brings Internet, mobile, entertainment and smart home services into one simple, seamless experience, giving customers more speed, savings and control over their connected lives.

“Expanding access to high-speed Internet is essential for strengthening our communities,” said Electra Janis, Vice Chair of the Washington County Board of Commissioners. “This partnership ensures more of our residents and businesses can connect to the tools, services and opportunities that drive education, innovation and economic growth. We’re proud to see this investment delivering real, long-term benefits for Washington County.”

Building on its investments in Washington County’s connectivity, Comcast presented a $10,000 grant to Ballpark Scholarships, Inc. at a recent Washington Wild Things game, helping the organization open more doors to digital opportunity for local students and families.

“At Ballpark Scholarships, Inc., we believe every student deserves access to the tools and resources they need to succeed – and reliable Internet plays a critical role in the education and career development we value so much,” said Leo Trich, Founder, Ballpark Scholarships, Inc. “We're grateful for Comcast's support that will help us create even more opportunities for students and families throughout the region."

“Expanding our network in Washington County means more residents and businesses can access the reliable, high-speed connectivity they need to learn, work and thrive,” said Dan Bonelli, Regional Senior Vice President, Comcast. “From multi-gig Internet and affordable Xfinity Mobile to advanced home security and business connectivity solutions, our services are designed to help customers stay connected, protected and productive every day.”

sd-wan technical

SD‑WAN is a technology that uses software to control and direct wide-area network traffic between offices, data centers and cloud services instead of relying solely on traditional hardware routers. Think of it as a smart traffic manager that chooses the fastest, cheapest or safest route for each data flow, improving performance, cutting telecom costs and simplifying upgrades. Investors care because it can lower operating expenses, enable faster cloud adoption and create steady demand for networking and security services.
