Underground conduit, direct burial fiber and copper, aerial fiber, horizontal directional drilling, handholes, and campus site infrastructure — installed by an experienced OSP contractor serving commercial and institutional projects across NC and the Southeast.
Most low-voltage contractors stop at the building wall. TCSS goes further — handling the underground conduit, aerial runs, and site infrastructure that connects buildings, campuses, and parking structures into one cohesive system.
TCSS installs outside plant infrastructure as a self-performing contractor — not a broker. Our crews handle underground conduit systems, direct burial fiber and copper, aerial fiber runs, horizontal directional drilling (HDD), handholes, and all site conduit for cameras, access control, and building-to-building connectivity across commercial and institutional projects in NC and the Southeast.
Bundling ISP and OSP scope under one contractor simplifies coordination, reduces RFIs, eliminates interface conflicts between subs, and gives the GC a single point of accountability for the entire communications infrastructure — inside the building and out.
When TCSS handles both ISP and OSP, the GC has one sub coordinating cabling from the equipment room to the parking lot camera, from the MDF to the remote building IDF. No interface disputes. No gaps between contractors. No finger-pointing at turnover.
OSP work must align with site grading, paving, and landscaping schedules — or it creates costly conflicts. TCSS coordinates OSP scope with site and civil contractors before mobilization, ensuring underground work is complete before final paving and that aerial runs don't conflict with site lighting or landscaping.
OSP infrastructure is the hardest to replace after a project closes — it's under pavement, in conditioned soil, and inaccessible without excavation. TCSS installs OSP to last: proper conduit fill, correct burial depth, conduit sweep radii that protect fiber, and handholes placed for future serviceability.
Underground or aerial fiber connecting multiple buildings on education, corporate, or institutional campuses — single-mode OS2 for long distances, coordinated with the campus fiber backbone design.
Underground conduit and direct burial runs feeding exterior camera locations throughout parking structures and lots — installed before final paving to avoid costly saw-cut work later.
Underground conduit for gate entry systems, parking access control, perimeter readers, and intercom systems — coordinated with site electrical and gate hardware suppliers.
HDD for conduit installation under roads, driveways, sidewalks, and landscaped areas where open trenching would cause excessive disruption or surface damage.
OSP infrastructure connecting separate buildings on industrial campuses — fiber backbone, security camera conduit, access control pathways, and site communications infrastructure.
Aerial fiber on existing pole infrastructure connecting buildings where underground trenching is impractical — lashed, properly tensioned, and installed to NESC standards.
We review civil drawings, confirm routing, identify conflicts with other underground utilities, and coordinate with site and civil contractors before any excavation begins.
All underground utilities located and marked before any digging. We coordinate with 811/NC811 and private utility locators for complete clearance on every project.
Underground conduit, handholes, and pull boxes installed at correct depth, fill, and routing — aligned with paving and grading schedules to avoid conflicts.
Fiber or copper pulled through installed conduit, terminated at each building entry point, tested and documented — ready for ISP connection at each end.
Upload your site plans and civil drawings — we'll review the OSP scope, confirm routing and methodology, and return a complete bid. We self-perform all OSP work — no brokers, no subs.
