Fiber Optic

As a national utility construction company, Electric Conduit Construction provides turnkey construction services for telecommunication and electric infrastructure systems.  We specialize in start-to-finish execution of design, build and optimization of utility networks for major public and private utility owners. Our work has allowed our clients to connect their existing networks and rapidly expand their footprints throughout the Midwest.

External fiber networks differ from internal since the work sequence is often governed by State and municipal permitting agencies. Utility conflicts are commonplace. As a result, these networks are knitted together in seemingly random segments that ultimately join to connect to a head end and feed nodes. Keeping the big picture in mind for our customer means that they benefit from fewer splices, cost savings, time savings, a higher quality build and faster speed to market. It is the management and execution of this process that sets Electric Conduit Construction ahead of the competition.

Our crews have installed thousands of miles of fiber from 12 to 864 count cables. These fiber installations include aerial and underground placement. We also install underground conduit for fiber placement  via open cut trenching and horizontal directional drilling. We have installed interstate long haul fiber as well as micro-fiber in city streets. All to help our customers deliver more bandwidth to their customers.

When the project is complete we perform testing to assure that we have delivered a network with continuity and the signal strength specified by the customer.
