The connection fee for a property with 1 service location and a driveway less then 375 feet has multiple separate costs to get fully connected. 

 

• Installation fee $700

  • This fee connects the service location to the mainline fiber along the roadway.

  •  All attempts are made to be underground at a depth of 24"-30"

  • A property access form is required.  This form can be seen at the following page

  • Various projects such as:

    • Benzie County

    • Roscommon County

    • Grand Traverse County &

    • Leelanau County 

The Installation fee may be waived.

Some counties have offered ARPA funds that resulted in the fee being waived, other locations consumer demand has justified waiving the fee, and in other areas ACP eligibility has created the opportunity to waive this fee.   

• Activation fee $500​

  • This fee is associated with running the fiber wire from the point of installation to the service zone inside the home.  (one location requiring access to one room)​

  • Configuration of the fiber optic to copper unit (property of CCC called an ONT)

  • Configuration and placement of the multiple switch demarcation unit (property of CCC).  You plug your router into the unit.

  • CCC offers payment plans

• Consumer router and configuration fee. (Varies)

  • This fee varies depending on what equipment you choose to use.  We recommend you use the EERO site to determine your needs.​

  • CCC activation crews can assist you with setting up an EERO system.  However, you must have the unit on-site when the activation technician is on-site.
