American Cable Services provides complete turnkey construction for telecommunications infrastructure. Our experienced field crews and modern equipment fleet handle projects of all sizes — from single-bore residential drops to large-scale multi-mile OSP builds. We work for towns, utility companies, ISPs, and general contractors across Texas.
We backfill and patch when needed and leave every site in the best possible condition — because your reputation is on the line too.
When obstacles like wetlands, streets, buildings, rivers, and creeks stand in the way, we use HDD to install conduit without surface disruption. Conduits for fiber, water, sewer, gas, and electric can be installed under roads, waterways, and buildings with no traffic disruption.
Our experienced team handles all types of excavation and trenching for conduit, drainage, electrical, waterlines, sewer lines, HVAC piping, and gas. We routinely work for towns, utility companies, plumbers, electricians, and contractors — leaving every site fully restored.
Hydrovac combines high-pressure water with a powerful vacuum to safely expose underground utilities without damaging pipes or other components. Unearthed material is stored in vacuum truck tanks — significantly reducing damage risk near live utilities like gas, water, and electric.
Aerial fiber is installed by stringing and bolting overhead cables on existing utility and telephone poles. Our crews handle all strand and lashing, hardware installation, and aerial fiber placement with the right equipment to work safely at height on any pole configuration.
Our team uses the IKE platform to gather pole data, delivering actionable insights on power and communication infrastructure with advanced structural analysis — speeding up and simplifying the pole application process for any make-ready or attachment project.
ACS employs a hybrid Waterfall and Agile approach to FTTH rollouts — structured planning with adaptive field execution. Our team handles GIS-based route planning, permit acquisition, as-built documentation, and full OSHA and NESC compliance from design through closeout.
ACS Distribution provides a comprehensive product line for outside plant fiber network construction — from the carrier pad to the home. We carry microduct systems, bulk fiber cable, handholes, enclosures, and all materials needed to build high-performing FTTH networks quickly and cost-effectively.
Our team can assist with BOM development, product selection, and material delivery directly to your job site.
Blowable fiber microduct systems for high-density FTTH deployments — enabling fast, flexible fiber installation without open-cut trenching.
HDPE standard duct in a full range of sizes for OSP conduit systems and direct-buried applications — available in multiple colors for utility identification.

ACS provides complete fiber splicing and testing services through American Cable Services field crews, and supplies professional-grade splicing and test equipment through ACS Distribution. Whether you need a certified splice crew on your job or you need to equip your own team — we cover both.
American Cable Services field crews perform both fusion and mechanical fiber splicing on OSP and premises networks. Fusion splicing uses an electric arc to join fiber ends with minimal signal loss — the preferred method for permanent long-haul connections.
Fiber optic testing verifies the performance of optical fiber cabling before and after installation. Our field crews perform insertion loss testing, optical return loss testing, OTDR analysis, and fiber length measurements — delivering certified test results for every project.
Professional-grade fusion splicing machines for single-fiber and ribbon fiber applications in the field or at a workbench.
High-precision cleavers for clean end-face preparation prior to fusion or mechanical splicing — critical for low-loss joints.
Complete optical test equipment for loss measurement, OTDR characterization, and fiber certification.
Complete field tool kits for fiber installation and termination — entry-level through professional configurations.
Precision stripping and cutting tools for fiber and copper cable preparation in the field.
Replacement components and accessories for maintaining professional-grade fusion splicing equipment in the field.

Every subdivision you build sits on a revenue stream you're handing to a national ISP for free. The ACS Ground-Plane™ model turns your civil excavation expense into a permanent, cash-flowing private utility asset — owned by you, managed by us.
The traditional fiber model isn't just an inconvenience. It's a significant, recurring financial event happening on every deal you close.
The ACS Ground-Plane™ model flips the traditional fiber equation. You own the asset. You control the network. You capture the revenue — and we manage everything else.
You own the fiber infrastructure in the ground. It's your asset, your easement, your control. ACS provides complete turnkey construction — from engineering and permitting through fiber splicing and testing. ACS Management handles operations: network management, billing, ISP coordination, and customer support. Revenues flow to you — recurring monthly revenue on every passed home.
Result: You've converted a construction cost into a 30+ year revenue stream. Competitive ISPs fight for access. Your residents have choice. And you own the digital utility forever.
Whether you're in the planning stages, mid-construction, or ready to deploy, ACS Ground-Plane™ can turn your fiber infrastructure into a permanent asset and revenue stream.
Our team specializes in residential and commercial fiber deployments across Texas. Let's explore how Ground-Plane™ can work for your project.
