Project Overview:
CatchMark was asked by Silver Lake Resort & Campground to assist them with implementing a wireless network throughout their 30-acre campground. This would allow for all of their customers to have a network connection while staying at the resort as well as the staff to have coverage throughout the site.
The solution was to run fiber optic cables underground to towers that would be assembled and have wireless access points.
Project Duration
The planning began in in the summer of 2021, project execution started in October after the camping season wrapped up. The project was completed in April 2022 ahead of the camping season.
Technology Stack
- Samsung 85″ TVs

Project Challenges
The largest challenge with this project was the vendors that CatchMark was relying on to assist with the trenching and assembly of the towers. Vendors didn’t come through so CatchMark completed these tasks using their problem-solving skills and resources.
Results
CatchMark successfully designed and installed the solution. The customer immediately saw a return on the investment.
