Fiber Optic Network Construction

If you want to construct or expand your own fiber optic network and save money doing it, CCI Systems can help. For every project, CCI engineers develop custom solutions specifically for those government or education network managers seeking to construct or expand their private fiber optic networks. CCI’s solutions are always developed to meet your three of your most important criteria: performance, cost, and future upgrade flexibility. This approach consistently delivers creative solutions with remarkably lower costs. 

Fiber Design, Routing and Documentation

CCI offers network operators greenfield fiber network design in GIS so you can trace fibers in an intelligent format. If you have an old infrastructure and need to replace it with fiber, CCI can help.

CCI is one of the most experienced vendors available fiber design and documentation. And CCI is one of the only true turn-key, end-to-end resources offering you design, construction and maintenance/support. Whatever the architecture, CCI has more experience and expertise than virtually any other option. Plus, CCI can draw on a vast selection of equipment and software brands.

Services:

• Walkout/field survey
• Create walkout maps (in whatever software the customer requests Bentley Comms., SpacialInfo, AutoDESK, LodeData)
• Draft the routes
• Overlay a design
• Document the design and provide bill of materials
• Provide maps to construct the system
• Post construction asbuilts

Fiber Construction

If you’re looking for fiber network construction, CCI Systems is the smart choice. CCI Systems has been building fiber plants for more than __ years. CCI builds a variety of systems from ADSS fiber (common in Fiber-to-the-Premises systems), to fiber interconnects, system upgrades and new system construction. 

CCI Systems construction teams are consistently recognized as the highest quality in the industry. This is the result of thorough training programs, stringent hiring practices, a strong emphasis on safety, formalized quality control programs, and experience--many of CCI’s project supervisors have 20-plus year’s construction experience.  

Aerial Capabilities

• Modified turnkey or labor-only projects large (thousands of miles) or small (five miles)
• Strand installation
• Lashing fiber, coax, twisted pair
• Overlashing fiber, coax, twisted pair
• ADSS fiber installation (where all dielectric installations are required)
• Plant extensions
• Plant maintenance including pole transfers, repair of broken lashing wire, etc.
• Highway, interstate, river and railroad crossings
• Wreckout

Underground Capabilities

• Turnkey, modified turnkey or labor-only projects from large (hundreds of miles) to small (one mile)
• Trenching cable, fiber or conduit up to 66 inches deep
• Plowing cable, fiber or conduit up to 60 inches deep
• Directional and pneumatic boring
• Blow or pull cable innerduct into new or existing conduit
• Complete restoration

Fiber Splicing and Testing

CCI technicians perform fiber optic fusion splicing (loose tube or ribbon). Following this work, CCI technicians conduct bi-directional OTDR (optical time domain reflector) and power testing to ensure splices are clean and meeting critical performance criteria. 

Proof of Performance Testing

CCI technicians run a series of tests to measure how well the network is running. Tests commonly include:

• Aural carrier frequency offset
• Visual carrier level
• 24 hour test
• Aural carrier level
• In-channel response
• Visual C/N
• Coherent disturbances
• Terminal isolation
• Hum and repetitive transients

You can customize the tests run, add more tests or simply run a single test.
