The Path to Becoming a Fiberhood
The design and construction process for a new fiber network build can take months and may be affected by various factors including inclement weather, easements, pole attachment agreements, etc. Despite these factors, our company is dedicated to getting your company to completed Fiberhood status as soon as possible. There are four phases to the process.

Learn About the Installation Process
Phase 1 | Design
Our Engineers partner with city officials and utilities to design the best path to deploy fiber optic internet to your area. Once completed plans are approved- construction begins.
Phase 2 | Construction
A fiber network is deployed in underground areas of the community and, in some cases, with a combination of aerial and buried fiber. Once this phase is completed our teams are ready to splice and test the fiber.
Phase 3 | Splicing & Testing
This last step in the construction process involves experienced technicians splicing and testing individual fibers to ensure optimal fiber internet performance, speed and reliability.
Phase 4 | Fiberhood Complete
During this final stage, you can sign up for service and get your installation completed by an experienced Great Plains Communications Fiber Network Technician. Once your install is complete, your home is fiber-powered and you can enjoy your fiber internet services.
At your scheduled appointment time, one of our badged technicians will arrive in a GPC-branded vehicle. They will run a cable to your property either underground or as a temporary above-ground connection. If we’re installing at your home and need to run a cable across your lawn, we’ll mark it with flags so it’s visible. We’ll be back within 14 days to bury the cable so it will be protected from the elements, wildlife and other potential hazards. If we need to dig in your yard to bury the cable, you can rest assured we will do everything needed to restore your lawn, so it was like we were never there.
