HAMILTON – Clearcable is working with independent wholesale telecommunications provider Metro Communications to help it integrate its cable systems.
In 2010, Metro Communications began construction on a 2500+ mile, middle mile network to provide enterprise and wholesale services throughout a 37 county area in central Illinois. Metro contracted Clearcable to execute an audit of the DOCSIS cable modem system, which was completed in August 2016, and the two companies have continued to work together.
“That summer, (Metro president Zak Horn) agreed to implement our premises-based operator-owned provisioning and telephony offerings,” said Clearcable’s director of technical operations Adam Ross Hill, in the news release. “We are able to effectively execute a meticulous migration plan that gave them complete control of the system.”
“We had no records to provide, so Clearcable had their work cut out for them,” added Horn. “It took more effort than they budgeted, but they always had a great attitude and they just kept working, to meet our goals. Those Clearcable guys are relentless.”
