NETWORK ARCHITECTURE

Engineered for Resilience & Performance.

We built Great Falls' most advanced fiber network from the ground up. Low latency, redundant paths, and 100% underground infrastructure.

Active Multi-Path Routing

Our core in Great Falls intelligently routes traffic across all uplinks. Your data automatically takes the shortest path (lowest latency) to its destination.

Montana Route Local Peering In-State Transport
WEST ROUTE Seattle West Coast IP Transit
KDS Fiber Core Great Falls, MT
AS31998
EAST ROUTE Chicago East Coast IP Transit
SOUTH ROUTE Denver Transit & IX Peering

✔ Optimized Performance: Whether you are gaming on a West Coast server or streaming from the East, our BGP routing ensures the direct path.

100% Underground

Montana weather is tough. Our fiber is 100% buried in conduit, protecting your connection from wind, ice, and falling trees. It’s the most resilient physical layer in the region.

Massive Capacity

Our core network is built for the future.
• Res/Bus: Up to 1 Gbps (10G Upgrade 2027)
• Enterprise: Up to 100 Gbps Dedicated

Direct Peering

As a member of the Denver IX, we peer directly with content giants like Akamai or other CDNs/networks via IX route servers. This means fewer hops and smoother streaming for you.

Wireless Reach & Redundancy

While we are working hard to bring fiber to every doorstep in Cascade County, our advanced wireless network ensures you don't have to wait for high-speed access.

County-Wide Coverage

Utilizing a strategic network of towers throughout Great Falls and Cascade County, we provide near-complete coverage. Get connected to the KDS backbone today, even in rural areas waiting for fiber construction.

Enterprise Failover

Already have fiber? Add a KDS Wireless link as a diverse backup path. If a backhoe cuts your fiber line, your business automatically switches to wireless, keeping your credit card terminals and VoIP phones online.

Custom Point-to-Point

Need to connect two office buildings or a remote workshop? We offer custom engineered Point-to-Point (PtP) microwave solutions to bridge local gaps with fiber-like speeds.
