Who provides end-to-end telecoms infrastructure, PIA and FTTP services in Solihull?

FDNS provides end-to-end telecommunications infrastructure services in Solihull for network operators, contractors, developers, public-sector organisations and enterprise projects. Our scope can include route surveys and build planning, Openreach PIA activity, duct and chamber works, pole and overhead deployment, underground fibre routes, cable pulling and cable blowing, fibre jointing and splicing, FTTP rollout, GPON and XGS-PON infrastructure, testing, commissioning and documented handover. We support both new-build and remediation projects, including blocked or congested routes, network extensions, pole and duct constraints, fibre faults and upgrade programmes. Where required, delivery can include test evidence, commissioning records, as-built information and handover documentation so the completed infrastructure can be accepted, maintained and expanded with confidence. For organisations comparing telecoms infrastructure contractors in Solihull, FDNS combines PIA, civils, fibre build, jointing, testing and commissioning within one coordinated service rather than treating them as separate workstreams.

Telecommunications Infrastructure & PIA Services

FDNS delivers telecommunications infrastructure projects throughout Solihull and the surrounding area, supporting access networks, FTTP, PON, MDU fibre, rural connectivity and network upgrade programmes. Our teams can work across underground and overhead routes, including Openreach PIA environments where the project uses existing duct and pole infrastructure.


Delivery can include route surveys, duct and chamber work, pole routes, cable blowing, fibre installation, fusion splicing, fibre jointing, cabinet and node work, connector inspection, OTDR and optical-loss testing. For PIA-based delivery, work can be aligned to the relevant Openreach process and S5–S9 scope required by the build, including activities associated with surveys, installation, cabling and network completion.


FDNS supports operators, alt-nets, contractors, developers, utilities and public-sector programmes that need one engineering partner across physical infrastructure and optical acceptance. Projects in Solihull can be documented for commissioning, handover, remediation and future maintenance so the completed network remains traceable and supportable.
