Northern Plains Network - This region’s biggest, most reliable fiber optic network.

In our global economy, the secret to success is access.

No one understands this more keenly than those of us who live on the wide-open Northern Plains. All our bright ideas, our brilliant business plans, our hard work ... might lie fallow without a reliable way to share those ideas.

To stay competitive in this changing marketplace – to even get a seat at the table – you need a rock-solid, high-performance connection to the world. That’s why we created the Northern Plains Network, or NPNet™. With over 4,000 miles of fiber in self-healing redundant rings, NPNet is this region’s biggest, most reliable fiber optic network.

Since 1996, we've made it our mission to invest our expertise, resources and millions of company dollars developing NPNet.

It all started while expanding our network capacity to better serve the growing needs of our residential and business customers. At that time, we got a brilliant idea: why not significantly overbuild our capacity? With this massive backbone, we could take our network beyond serving our  tens of thousands of phone, data and video customers. With that much fiber in that many places, we could easily provide high-end connectivity to even the biggest enterprise customers.

The result of this multi-million dollar investment? A network whose unmatched capacity, scalability and reliability is so vast (and continuing to grow every day!), it could easily serve even the most demanding broadband technology-based clients.
