One of the nation’s largest installers of services and systems for the home entertainment, communications, enterprise data and home integration industries may be connecting about 80,000 Palo Alto residents to a citywide fiber optic network, and, if approved by the city council, the firm’s office in Boise would spearhead the project.
Ron Ivie, director of engineering and construction for 180 Connect’s Network Services http://www.180connectnsg.net division, headquartered in Boise, said while about 80 percent of the company’s business comes from DirectTV install, his team of 35 in the Treasure Valley coordinates and oversees other large-scale fiber optic, fiber-hybrid and wireless connection projects around the country, including two in Washington, three in California and two in Utah.
