Comcast Will Bring Advanced Infrastructure to Schaumburg MXU

Comcast will bring its advanced network infrastructure to Veridian, a 225-acre mixed-use development at the former Motorola campus in Schaumburg, IL. Comcast will offer Internet speeds of up to 100 gigabits per second to businesses located in the development, along with consumer and commercial services and smart technologies. 

“Veridian is an entirely new concept in suburban real estate development,” said Bob Burk of UrbanStreet Group, Veridian’s developer.  “Having Comcast’s advanced network infrastructure available onsite has been a catalyst for the development currently underway and will ensure we’re able to provide the technology necessary to attract and support future development.”  
  
As part of the Veridian project, Comcast’s Xfinity Communities team is providing high-speed Internet service at Element at Veridian, a 260-unit residential building, the first on the campus.  Element also will offer the Xfinity Community platform, with smart home devices ranging from smart locks and lights to smart thermostats.
