Broadband expansion sought in Franconia
January 13, 2021FRANCONIA Citing the need for expanded broadband in the area, Iron Furnace Brewery has applied for a site plan review with the Franconia Planning Board.
At a public hearing held on Dec. 29, brewery owner and Mountain Top Telecom Vice-Chair Tim Clough told the Planning Board that an existing dish mounted on the back of the building was no longer sufficient enough to meet demand. The construction of a standalone 44-foot meshed tower would provide a better line of sight to Mountain Top Telecom s Cannon Mountain signal.
According to meeting minutes, Clough said relocating the dish to a new tower would provide four times more bandwidth to the area. Mountain Top Telecom recently received a grant to fund much-needed equipment upgrades.
