As a leading telecommunications provider in Middle Tennessee, United Communications is investing in multiple counties to rapidly expand fiber internet service to unserved and under-served consumers in the region. With miles of new fiber optics planned, United strives to bridge the digital communications gap for residents and businesses across Middle Tennessee.
Rutherford County continues to be a focus area for United Communications. With another $85 million planned as part of the investment in Murfreesboro and the surrounding county, United will expand its enterprise-ready fiber internet service to an additional 77,000 Middle Tennessee Electric members. As part of this initiative, the doors to the brand-new United Communications Rutherford County Operations Center opened on February 5, 2024.

Now Open: Rutherford County Operations Center
With rapid expansion in Rutherford County and Wilson County, it was essential for United Communications to establish a local hub to better serve its customers in these areas. The Rutherford Operations Center (or “ROC”) will ensure that the same high standard of customer service extends throughout the United service area. Establishing the communications center also invests in the economic future of Murfreesboro. The new operations center will be home to 60 local employees when fully staffed, with additional field employees dedicated to Rutherford County.
The ROC will function as part of a series of infrastructure projects planned over the next few years, establishing an additional 1,400 route miles of new fiber-optic lines capable of delivering multi-gig fiber internet service to residential and commercial connections. The expansion ensures residential customers have the internet they need to function in today’s digital world and offers local businesses enterprise-ready fiber internet. United Communications is also known for its industry-leading customer service by local representatives for both consumers and businesses.
