Capable of delivering up to 10 Gigabits-per-second (Gbps) of network capacity, Comcast's (News - Alert) Ethernet network will bring superior speeds, along with scalable, secure and reliable performance, to more than 1,600 San Jose businesses. As a result, these area organizations can benefit from innovative Ethernet, internet, Wi-Fi, TV and voice solutions to remain competitive and help grow their bottom line. "With a population surpassing 1 million, San Jose is the 10th largest city in the country, the 3rd largest in California, and the heart of Silicon Valley. It's a thriving technology hub, home to tech giants such as Apple, eBay, Cisco and PayPal (News - Alert)," said Matthew Mahood, president and CEO of The Silicon Valley Organization. "Much like other large cities, San Jose is always looking for ways to attract new businesses while maintaining the best quality of life it can for all. Silicon Valley does business differently.
