MBC takes seriously our role of corporate citizen, as we continue to deliver on our promises of strengthening the communities we serve. Through sponsorships and charitable donations, MBC has strengthened non-profit organizations across Southern Virginia.

RESIDENTIAL SERVICE PROVIDERS

MBC’s middle-mile fiber network allows last-mile Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to extend their coverage areas cost effectively. By using MBC’s open-access fiber network, ISPs do not individually bear costs of network extensions. This partnership translates into broadband services reaching more people and businesses in Southern Virginia.

Last-mile Internet Service Providers who use MBC’s network to provide residential and business services in Southern Virginia are listed below.
