Huntsville Utilities Turned Over the First 4,000 Residential Home Passings for Google Fiber

April 1, 2017

In March 2017, under the direct construction management of TBG Network Services, Huntsville Utilities (HU) turned over the first 4,000 residential home passings for Google Fiber.  This represents the first customer contact point leading to an eventual fiber network serving all 108,000 residential passings in the Huntsville market – a landmark achievement.

HU initially engaged TBG to conduct a Feasibility Study and Implementation Plan related to telecommunications and utility control infrastructure.  TBG has defined requirements related to expanding the scale of existing infrastructure, supporting a fully integrated broadband network, and serving public facilities.  In addition to infrastructure and process review, TBG conducted city-wide Market Research, inclusive of an Institutional Market Study and Take Rate Regression Analysis throughout HU’s serving footprint.
