A finished install of Lit Fiber's services combines professionalism and attention to detail, ensuring a seamless experience for our customers. The photos below showcase two critical components of the installation process: the Fiber Line and the Network Interface Device (NID). The first two images illustrate the Fiber Line Install, with discrete trenching that minimizes disruption to your landscape, preserving the aesthetic of your lawn. The subsequent photos highlight the NID Install, featuring the secure placement of our reliable equipment on your home's exterior. The NID is mounted with precision to ensure optimal performance and durability. This installation process guarantees that your Lit Fiber connection is both unobtrusive and robust, providing you with high-speed internet that blends effortlessly into your home environment.
You will begin to see paint on the roads or in your yard marking utilities. You may also see red, orange, blue, and yellow flags on small wires sticking out of the ground. This is the first step of the process and construction is soon to follow – most likely, within 10 - 20 days.
Shortly after utilities have been marked and before drilling operations begin, residents may notice small, exploratory holes being dug. This may also occur in the roadway, driveway apron, and sidewalks. Per Ohio State Law, our crews are required to visually find any buried utility lines prior to installing the underground conduit. This is to protect the general public from potential utility strikes.
Next, crews of construction workers will use boring machinery to bury orange tubing that is called conduit. The fiber does not go into the conduit until after all conduit and vaults are placed. You will also see construction workers hand digging holes along the roadway to bury large or medium sized plastic encasements. These are called vaults or flower pots. Fiber will be located within them and we'll use them to bury fiber to your homes or other streets.
Residents will typically see orange conduits coming up and out of the ground. This is temporary and they will soon disappear when the crews come back to install the flush-mount vaults/flower pots. Once the vaults are set, different crews will arrive to begin pulling our fiber optic cables through the orange conduits. When the fiber optic cables are in place, crews will begin the process of splicing and testing these cables at each vault location.
The last step is us burying fiber to your home. The fiber line that is buried to the home only occurs if and when a resident signs up for our service. Click here to learn more about the stages of construction.

An easement is a legal right that allows someone to use another person's property for a specific purpose. It can be called by different names, such as a "tree lawn," "right of way," or "utility easement," depending on its purpose. Easements are typically established through agreements and serve various functions, such as providing access, utility access, or conservation of land. They grant specific rights within defined boundaries and are legally binding. Click here to learn more about easements.
Our flags allow us to know where your existing underground utilities are. Removing flags could cause delays in construction or disrupt your service.
