OSP Construction & Maintenance

Bigham has extensive experience in both aerial and underground construction, whether it be complete new builds or upgrades of existing systems. It is well-versed in all types of underground construction and can complete work with minimum disruption to municipal authorities and local residents. In addition, our support staff provides maps, as-builts, and other documentation for our customers in a timely and professional fashion.

Emergency services and restoration are a major focus; Bigham provides turn-key services 24 hours a day, 7 days a to all customers, with a dedicated on-call staff at all locations ready to be dispatched any time of the day regardless of the weather or the type of event. Our capabilities include setting poles, rehanging lines, splicing fiber, excavating damaged lines and splicing coax.

Forward & Reverse Sweep

Our teams of sweepers and sweep managers can fine-tune both the forward and reverse spectrums for proper signal levels. We have swept over 15,000 miles of cable plant in the past few years. We have been involved in forward and reverse sweep procedures since its emergence in the marketplace. We feel that we have the technical teams on staff to provide expert service, consultations, and leadership in this area.

Coupled with the forward and reverse sweep teams are the ingress suppression teams. Ingress can prohibit the proper operation of the reverse signal path (cable modems). Our ingress suppression teams can identify and eliminate ingress in the cable plant. This is a specialized type of technical work and it takes expertly trained personnel to isolate and eliminate ingress, with minimal customer outage.

Fiber Splicing

Maintaining optimal system output requires strong connections that accommodate the fastest speeds. Our team of certified fiber splicing specialists uses the industry’s most modern equipment and methods to perform top-tier splicing services for both copper and fiber cables. These skills are kept up to date year after year, with ongoing education that keeps our service on the cutting edge.
One of the most important facets of a modern cable system is the ability to replace old equipment on an active coaxial line, either directly or by splicing. This challenging job requires highly trained personnel and managers. Bigham Cable has both.

Inside Plant

With the advent of pay-per-view systems and digital compression, it has been necessary for cable networks to continually update their head-end equipment. We have the personnel to develop, build and update head-end configurations to suit any client’s needs.

If a company must change their receivers or has any other electronic equipment needs we can provide the manpower and expertise to meet these requirements. Our head-end technicians have years of experience in this very specialized field, which few other companies can match.

Business Network Services

Companies today must have access to reliable and fast data and telephone service. Bigham Cable has
been providing these services to businesses since 2004. Typically, a business will need a high-speed data network for normal operations, ranging from 1 MBPS to 160+ MBS. Our experience includes small businesses, large manufacturing plants, and hospitals, ranging from a 500-foot tie-in to a 14-mile hospital interconnect.

Bigham has been constructing fiber networks for schools since 2002. We offer full coordination services to customize the entry point and data room requirements, with expertise in Cisco switching systems. Our services are not limited to schools only, we can assist any MSO in meeting their customers’ business network needs.
