Research
We measure before we knock.
Public FCC analysis and RCLX’s own live address checks, kept as separate layers and each dated. Fiber footprint growth, county coverage, measured serviceability by market, and the methodology behind all of it.
Some of it is unflattering. A market can look strong on paper and measure thin at the door. We publish that too.
The library
Five pages, three layers.
Each card names where its numbers come from. Filed and measured never share a figure.
RCLX live checks
Where fiber is sellable today
Every market whose sample cleared the publish test, with its range. A market with no orderable address prints as a ceiling.

Public FCC data only
The fastest growing fiber footprints
Cities where filed fiber grew most between the June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2025 filings. None of our own measurements.

County layer
Coverage by county
Every county holding one of our market pages, state by state, with its federal share or its service-area status.

How the numbers get built
The three layers, where each comes from, and the test a number passes before it prints. Market pages use the FCC filing as of December 31, 2025.

Why an agency publishes data
So you can check us.
The federal filing can lag a new build by months, so a market that sells every day can read as empty on paper. We run live checks on real addresses to close that gap, and we print the range with every rate.
Which ZIP codes hold the plant stays private. That list is how turf gets requested. Everything else is here.
Providers report their own coverage to the FCC and those reports can be challenged. Advertised speeds are ceilings, not what a given house gets. Nothing on this page is a promise of territory, earnings, or service at any specific address.
