IQALUIT, NU – Northwestel has expanded its new new high-speed broadband satellite network to three additional Nunavut communities.
The new 15 Mbps service, known as Katittuq 15, is available now in Cambridge Bay, Arviat and Rankin Inlet for $129 per month and includes 100 GB of monthly usage. The service launched in Iqaluit last month and is scheduled to rollout in all Nunavut communities in 2019.
“Northwestel is pleased to begin connecting customers in Rankin Inlet, Cambridge Bay, and Arviat to our new Tamarmik Nunaliit network in Nunavut”, said Northwestel president Curtis Shaw, in the news release. “Now, customers in four Nunavut communities can enjoy the benefits of high-speed Internet, while also saving money every month with our new, lower prices. We continue to work toward the goal of connecting all 25 communities by the end of 2019. It is all part of our mission to help northerners prosper and thrive through a highly connected North.”
