After Fiber is Installed
As Clearnetworx/Deeply Digital continues to work around Fruita, you may start to see different construction variations in your neighborhood. Here is what to expect when it comes to construction and bringing fiber internet to Fruita:
- Conduit placement: Is burying protective tubing called conduit underground to house fiber optic cables.
- Handhole or pedestal installation: Is the installation of fiber access points called handholes or pedestals, either underground or above ground. These provide access to fiber optic cables for splicing and repairs.
- Fiber drop: If you've pre-ordered service, Clearnetworx/Deeply Digital will complete a fiber drop to your home and install a demarcation point (or “demarc”) to the exterior of your residence. This creates a pathway to bring fiber from the roadway directly to your residence, either underground or aerially.
- Fiber jetting: A compressed air system is used to blow the fiber optic cable through the conduit.
- Yard restoration: Clearnetworx/Deeply Digital will do their best to return everything back to its original condition after construction. If you notice something that has not been properly restored, please contact Clearnetworx/Deeply Digital.
- Splicing: Clearnetworx/Deeply Digital's splicing crew will join the fiber optic cables together, connecting your home's fiber cable to the network's active cable.
- Installation: Clearnetworx/Deeply Digital will reach out to schedule your installation.
