Optimum WiFi available at 11 NJ Transit stations

HUDSON COUNTY – Cablevision Systems Corporation and NJ TRANSIT Wednesday announced that they have reached a significant milestone in their partnership to provide WiFi access for NJ TRANSIT customers with the launch of Optimum WiFi at the following eleven train stations: Hoboken Terminal, Newark Penn Station, Secaucus Junction, Meadowlands, Metropark, Montclair State University, New Brunswick, Newark Broad Street, Rahway, Summit and Trenton Transit Center.
Gemma Toner, Cablevision’s senior vice president of broadband product management, said, “Cablevision is committed to bringing WiFi to places that matter most to our customers, and expanding our WiFi presence to 11 train stations in the NJ TRANSIT system is a natural extension of our robust network of more than 100,000 Tri-State Area hotspots. We look forward to now providing NJ TRANSIT passengers at these select stations with the superior Optimum WiFi experience our customers rely on even as we continue to deploy additional WiFi access sites at other NJ TRANSIT stations and ultimately on the rail cars.”
“This public-private partnership will enable NJ TRANSIT to deliver on one of the top requests from our customers—wireless internet access at stations, and ultimately onboard trains,” said NJ TRANSIT Executive Director James Weinstein. “We are excited to work with Cablevision to further enhance the overall customer experience on our system by offering a dedicated WiFi connection, enabling those who wish to remain connected during their commute to do so continuously.”
