MDCC Magdeburg-City-Com

MDCC GmbH, formerly MDCC Magdeburg-City-Com GmbH, is a telecommunications company headquartered in Magdeburg, the capital of the German state of Saxony-Anhalt. The company delivers a range of media and connectivity services to private and business customers in Magdeburg and its surrounding region, with a portfolio that includes internet access, cable television, telephony and wholesale telecommunications services. By 2022 it was serving roughly 96,000 private households. The company was founded in 1997, and in the following year planning and network build-out began, with the first business customers connected in the region. Cable television was added to the offering in 2000, the first private-customer internet connections followed in 2001, and with the introduction of telephony in 2002 MDCC became a triple-play provider. In 2013 the company launched the "CYBERhaus 2.0" pilot project to bring FTTH fibre technology to private customers, and in 2014 it established a free WLAN network in Magdeburg stretching from Hasselbachplatz to the university. In 2021, in cooperation with local municipal utilities in Schönebeck and Stendal, it began expanding the fibre network for households there. On its official website MDCC markets high-speed internet packages under names such as Net, Net Premium and Net Pro, advertising download speeds up to 1,700 Mbit/s, bundled TV with HD channels, telephony options and premium routers. It also promotes fibre build-out areas, youth tariffs for customers under 26, and dedicated solutions for business customers ranging from medical practices to start-ups. The company is active as a sponsor in Magdeburg culture and sport, including the handball Bundesliga club SC Magdeburg and the football second-division club 1. FC Magdeburg. In July 2009 MDCC acquired the naming rights to the Stadion Magdeburg, which was renamed the MDCC-Arena.

MDCC GmbH, originally MDCC Magdeburg-City-Com GmbH, was founded in 1997 as a telecommunications company based in Magdeburg, the capital of Saxony-Anhalt. In the following year, 1998, planning and network build-out began, and the first business customers in the region were connected. The company expanded its service portfolio over the next several years: cable television was introduced in 2000, the first internet connections for private customers were realised in 2001, and the addition of telephony in 2002 made MDCC a triple-play provider offering internet, TV and phone services. In 2013 MDCC launched the "CYBERhaus 2.0" model project, a pilot for using FTTH fibre-optic technology for private customers. The following year, 2014, the company set up a free WLAN network in Magdeburg that extends from Hasselbachplatz to the university.
