• What equipment is needed for fiber optic internet?Expand or collapse answer
  

  To bring lightning-fast Quantum Fiber internet into your home or small business, you need a modem or what we call a "network termination device." That's our fancy way of saying a permanently-placed modem (usually mounted on a wall). Please don't remove it if you cancel service or move away. This device functions as a fiber-optic network end-point and modem rolled into one. It decodes the optical signals that make your fiber internet work and has a built-in Ethernet port for a wired connection.

  For WiFi coverage, you must pair this type of modem with 360 WiFi or your own router. Remember, if you choose 360 WiFi service, it's available with several Quantum Fiber speed plans at no extra charge.
