The need.

  • To improve connectivity across the 30-square-mile compound and better serve the thousands who live and work on the base.
  • To consolidate the assets of multiple carriers into a single, more permanent structure and provide a fiber conduit design that would connect to existing underground access points.
  • To meet the high standards and stringent requirements for building a new tower site on military property.

The solution.

  • We worked closely with the officials at Fort Drum to create a solution that would include a new tower design as well as all necessary fiber conduits to support their connectivity demands now and in the future.
  • We helped save money on trenching and installation costs, consolidate excavation work to a single event and lessen overall impact to the site.
  • This new design also provides easier access for equipment upgrades and growth, allowing for greater capacity in the future with less downtime.

The impact.

  • The new infrastructure ensures that personnel and visitors have the reliable coverage they need while on-base.
  • The improved connectivity has created a boost in overall morale on base and, now, recruits have the coverage they need to stay in touch with family and friends.
  • The new solution promises Fort Drum is set up for future 5G/6G networks.
