LS Networks announced that Randy Brogle, a former Meta Fiber Investments executive, will take the company reins as it invests in the buildout of its fiber network to support delivery of high-capacity connectivity to underserved Pacific Northwest communities. Brogle has more than 25 years of experience in operations, sales, finance, and network development, while more recently overseeing the global acquisition and construction of fiber networks for Meta Fiber Investments.
“His experience,” said Jack Bittan, executive chair of LS Networks, “aligns perfectly with the mission at LS Networks to deliver infrastructure that not only offers an essential service to rural communities, but also provides equal access to better jobs, education, and advanced lifestyles that support family, growth, and sustainable communities.”
Brogle says he looks forward to joining the focused efforts of the team to bridge the digital and social inequality divide. “The organization’s emphasis on quality, innovation, and investment in the Pacific Northwest has laid a strong foundation with a 100% fiber network suited to meeting the growing demand for Internet speeds,” added Brogle.
LS Networks operates more than 7,000 route miles of fiber at wavelength speeds up to 100 Gbps. The company offers a variety of network connectivity services, including internet, Ethernet, voice, and data.
