Empire expands into Irondequoit, bringing 100% fiber connectivity to over 3,500 homes

IRONDEQUOIT, NEW YORK – January 21, 2026 – Empire Fiber Internet, a leading fiber optic internet service provider serving communities across New York and Pennsylvania, continues its ongoing expansion in the Greater Rochester area with the completion of its buildout in Irondequoit. This follows the company’s successful launch in Greece in August 2025 and underscores Empire Fiber Internet’s commitment to bringing high-speed reliable fiber internet to Rochester area communities.

Residents in Irondequoit can now order service. This expansion delivers 100% high-speed fiber internet, symmetrical upload and download speeds to over 3,500 homes, with transparent rates, no hidden fees, no long-term contracts, and locally based 24/7 customer support.

“Irondequoit is a natural fit for our expansion: it’s a community that values choice and reliability, and our local team is already lighting up neighborhoods with 100% fiber, transparent pricing (no hidden fees or contracts), and 24/7 local support for residents and businesses,” said Kevin Dickens, CEO of Empire Fiber Internet. “High-speed internet fuels work, learning, innovation, and growth, and we’re proud to bring that kind of game-changing connectivity to the Irondequoit community.”

Empire Fiber Internet’s network is designed to meet the growing needs of today’s households and businesses, supporting streaming, gaming, remote work, cloud applications, and secure operations. The company’s broader expansion across New York and Pennsylvania has already connected thousands of homes and businesses, including last year’s expansion in Greece which connected over 1,500 homes and 800 businesses.

Empire Fiber Internet’s expansion efforts are supported by community focused partnerships across its service areas, including collaboration with local Chambers of Commerce and work with local counties to bring high speed fiber to more communities. Through these efforts, the company aims to strengthen local connectivity and help close the digital divide by expanding access to reliable, symmetrical fiber internet.
