Wireline Construction & Maintenance

Project Management

We understand that planning ahead, while maintaining adaptability, is key. WesTower provides clients and our team with a plan that allows them to flawlessly execute wireline installations with the right technical specifications, equipment, and foresight of any challenges that might occur during our work.

Aerial Construction

WesTower performs aerial cable placement and installation services. To do so we have cable placer trucks, manhole pulling, and hydraulic pulling available for any aerial project.

WesTower is equipped with all the necessary tools to install, secure, and protect aerial fibre optic cable, providing our customers with a stable and reliable aerial network.

Directional Drilling

WesTower installs safer and faster fibre optic networks while minimizing the impact on the immediate environment by using directional drills in a range of sizes to accommodate a variety of boring lengths and terrain.

Hydro Excavation

WesTower offers a non-destructive method of excavation through hydro excavation. Hydro excavation allows us to take the safest route possible underground to achieve a complete fibre optic installation in both cold and warm months.

Plowing

WesTower plows cable and pipe for underground fibre optic installation projects allowing for a fast and smooth installation with minimal ground disturbance.

Fibre Optic Installation

WesTower uses the latest and most advanced fibre optic cable installation techniques and equipment available in the industry:

• Fibre Splicing and Testing using environmentally controlled ribbon and single fusion fibre splicing and state-of-the-art OTDR equipment
• Fibre Pulling and Installation using custom pulling trucks rigged to safely and efficiently install, monitor, and limit cable tensions, guaranteeing cable integrity during installation
• Staff fully equipped and trained for manhole entry and duct bank cable installation
• Fibre-to-the-X (FTTx) Construction from the installation of FDHs (Fibre Distribution Hubs), to zero-easement drilling and cable installation, as well as splicing, testing, and terminating

Cable Equipment

WesTower supports and maintains all aspects of outside cable TV plants, including:

• Full rebuilds (live plant and node construction, power supply pedestals, and aerial taps and amplifiers)
• Complete sweeps (including node to back-of-house, forward and reverse sweeps, and WaveTek and/or Trilithic sweep systems)
• Live plant maintenance

Pole Line Analysis

As part of our wireline design services, WesTower offers comprehensive fibre and utility aerial pole line analysis to provide detailed insights and solutions to optimize both aerial infrastructure performance and safety.

Comprehensive Site Construction Capabilities

WesTower’s site construction capabilities also include: underground conduit placement, anchoring, manhole installations and repairs, and pedestal installations.

Final Site Testing & Restoration

WesTower ensures our work is completed correctly and we confirm this through network testing before handover of every wireline job. In addition, we always conduct final restorations to return asphalt, sidewalks, and landscaping to original condition. 

Maintenance & Repairs

In addition to wireline installations, WesTower’s team can arrange and complete maintenance services for wireline infrastructure. We also have a 24/7 call center for emergency response to repair sudden issues. We ensure your operation runs smoothly with minimal disruption or downtime.
