Services
Fiber Optic Splicing
Our certified technicians perform precision fiber optic splicing using advanced fusion technology. We handle emergency repairs, network extensions, and coax cable maintenance with minimal downtime. Our team ensures 100 Gbit/sec functionality through rigorous OTDR and power meter testing, providing reliable connections for critical infrastructure.
Underground Construction
We specialize in non-destructive vacuum excavation and slot trenching for fiber optic installations. Our hydrovac services safely expose utilities in any weather condition, using pressurized water and industrial vacuums. This method prevents damage to existing infrastructure while creating precise pathways for new cable installations in challenging environments.
Network Testing
Our comprehensive testing services include Tier 1 insertion loss measurements and Tier 2 event analysis for fiber optic networks. We use advanced OTDR equipment to identify faults, measure optical return loss, and perform chromatic dispersion testing. This ensures optimal network performance and helps predict system reliability through detailed documentation packages.
Emergency Restoration
We provide round-the-clock emergency response for network outages caused by storms, accidents, or equipment failures. Our trained crews respond immediately to restore service, specializing in damaged conduit repair, pole replacement, and rodent damage mitigation. With rotating on-call teams, we guarantee rapid deployment and efficient resolution of critical infrastructure issues.
Project Management
Our project management services cover complete network lifecycle from design to implementation. We coordinate audits, traffic plans, and contract inspections while maintaining strict budget and schedule controls. Our team handles materials management and regulatory compliance, ensuring seamless execution of aerial and underground construction projects of any scale.
