Overview

About Our Fiber Network

Chanute operates a multi-homed autonomous network (ASN 36069) peered through fiber connections with two national Tier 1 Internet Access Providers (Lumen and Cox Communications). Connectivity to existing AT&T fiber is also available. These fiber connections are capable of delivering multi-Gigabit bandwidth to network participants. The City has its own direct allocation of both IPv4 and IPv6 address space re-assignable to network participants.

For redundancy and even greater network reliability, the City has distributed its core network routers and operates a 10 Gigabit Metro Ethernet Loop between the hardened core facilities.

We currently have over 200 miles of fiber in our network, and connected to a Tier 1 internet provider named Lumen at their POP near Chanute at 10-Gigabit per second speed.
