What to Expect and How to Prepare for Your Fiber Internet Installation Appointment for your Business.

Confirmation and Appointment Details:

Prior to your installation appointment, you will receive a confirmation email or call from our team. This communication will include the date, time, and any additional instructions for the appointment. If you have any specific requirements, such as wiring preferences or special considerations, please communicate to your Account Executive team before the appointment. This will help us prepare and ensure a smooth installation experience. 

Site Survey

Our technician may conduct a site survey before the installation appointment to assess the best routing and location for the fiber optic cables. During this visit, they will discuss the installation process, answer any questions you may have, and determine the optimal placement for equipment. 

Clear Access Pathways

Ensure clear access to the areas where the fiber optic cables will be installed. Remove any obstacles or furniture that could impede the installation process. This will help our technicians work efficiently and minimize any potential delays. 

Equipment Location

Decide on the preferred location for the equipment, such as the Optical Network Terminal (ONT) or modem/router. Consider proximity to power outlets and accessibility for future maintenance or troubleshooting.

Coordinate Access

If your installation requires access to an access-controlled building or community, apartment complex, or any other restricted access area, please make the necessary arrangements to grant access to our technician. This will help avoid any delays on the day of the installation. 

Power Availability

Ensure that power outlets are readily available near the equipment installation location. This will allow for prompt and convenient device setup. 

Plan for Downtime

Depending on your existing internet service, there may be a brief downtime during the installation process. We recommend informing any colleagues who rely on the Internet for critical tasks and planning accordingly.

Questions and Concerns

If you have any questions or concerns about the installation process, contact our customer support team Monday through Friday between 8 AM and 5 PM at (SCT) 407-828-6700 or email customerservice@smartcitytelecom.com.
