Telecom construction crew completing a fiber cable placement scope

Fiber placement crews

Cable pulling and overlash installation.

Experienced crews for controlled underground cable pulling, aerial lashing and overlash scopes across the United States.

Brandstein Group provides field-ready crews for fiber cable pulling and aerial overlash installation. We support prime contractors and telecom construction teams that need additional production capacity with defined equipment, reporting and schedule expectations.

Fiber cable pulling

An effective pulling plan considers pathway length, bends, access points, reel position, cable construction and the manufacturer's maximum pulling load and bend radius. Project responsibilities for conduit proving, cleaning, pull line preparation and civil corrections are aligned before mobilization.

Aerial lashing and overlash

Overlash places an additional communications cable onto an existing aerial support system. The route, existing plant, attachment permissions, cable count, equipment method and production requirements must be clear before work begins.

Information we need

  • Project location and route footage
  • Underground or aerial placement method
  • Cable type, reel lengths and handling requirements
  • Existing pathway or strand information
  • Daily production target and reporting format
