Network Cabling and Structured Cabling Contractor in Allentown and the Lehigh Valley
KIT Communications is a commercial structured cabling contractor and network cabling installer serving Allentown, Bethlehem, and the greater Lehigh Valley. As a Pennsylvania low voltage contractor in business since 1999, KIT installs Cat6 and Cat6A copper, fiber optic, and data cabling — the foundation every other building system runs on, which is exactly why it gets the closest attention.
The Lehigh Valley carries a logistics footprint well over 100 million square feet, and warehouses, manufacturing plants, college and hospital campuses, schools, and offices are going up or being refit across it. For the full technical detail on every cable grade, fiber type, and data-center build, see KIT’s statewide structured cabling overview. KIT cables commercial buildings across central and eastern Pennsylvania.
Warehouse & Distribution Cabling Along the I-78 Corridor
KIT cables high-bay logistics buildings across the Lehigh Valley’s warehouse market — the seven-park Lehigh Valley Industrial Park system with roughly 500 businesses across Lehigh and Northampton counties, and the newer big-box warehouse belt that runs west along I-78 and Route 22 through Breinigsville and Trexlertown.
As a Lehigh Valley warehouse cabling installer, KIT runs zone cabling with consolidation points so the floor can be re-racked without re-pulling the building, dock-door sensor and scanner drops, and the camera and wireless access-point home runs that thread through racking aisles — feeding the WiFi and security cameras KIT also installs.
Plant-Floor Cabling for Lehigh Valley Manufacturers
As a plant cabling contractor, KIT cables plastics and packaging plants, process and industrial manufacturers, and fabrication shops from Nazareth to Easton and around Whitehall.
KIT installs shielded cabling for electrically noisy plant floors near heavy machinery and drives, conduit-protected runs in wet or high-vibration areas, industrial-rated outlets and enclosures, and plant-floor zone cabling that flexes as production lines and equipment move.
Campus & School District Cabling Across the Lehigh Valley
KIT cables Lehigh Valley school district campuses, with district-wide work from Allentown through Catasauqua to Easton — classroom and lab data drops, wireless access-point and camera home runs, server-room and IDF builds, and the inter-building fiber backbone that ties multiple buildings to one core. KIT designs outside plant runs between structures — aerial or underground — up front.
KIT cables new school construction and re-cables older buildings on the same campus, runs the campus fiber backbone that ties the buildings together, and supports Lehigh Valley K-12 and charter schools and municipal buyers through COSTARS, PEPPM, and TIPS cooperative purchasing.
Copper, Fiber & Data-Center Cabling
Underneath all of it is the same cable plant. Cat6 and Cat6A copper are the standard for new commercial work, with Cat8 for the short rack-to-rack links inside a data room; single-mode and multimode fiber optic handle building backbones and inter-building runs. KIT also builds and re-cables server rooms and data centers — racks and cabinets, copper and fiber backbone, patch-panel buildouts, and cable management that keeps the room serviceable. The deep technical detail on each cable grade lives on the structured cabling page.
Cabling Across the Lehigh Valley
Coverage runs across the whole Lehigh Valley — Allentown’s commercial core, the Lehigh Valley Industrial Park system around Bethlehem, the Easton end of the Lehigh Valley where the Lehigh meets the Delaware, the I-78 warehouse belt from Breinigsville west to Trexlertown, and north through Catasauqua to Slatington. KIT also cables the Lehigh County boroughs from Whitehall south to Coopersburg, and crosses from Lehigh County into Northampton County around Bethlehem and Easton. The full list of Lehigh Valley communities served is in the FAQ below.

Every line is tested and documented before closeout, each run verified to perform at its rated network speed. Labeling and as-built documentation are provided at project close.

Why Lehigh Valley Buyers Choose KIT for Cabling
Cabling is the foundation, and it’s done in-house. KIT’s own crews pull, terminate, and test the cable that the cameras, access control, WiFi, and paging all ride on. The cable plant is designed, installed, and tested by KIT Communications, and one contractor owns the backbone and everything on top of it.
Two BICSI RCDDs on staff, for the work that needs them. KIT carries two BICSI Registered Communications Distribution Designer credentials (RCDD #120421 and RCDD #271784, the latter also a BICSI Outside Plant Designer), verifiable through BICSI’s public directory. Most jobs don’t need a credentialed designer; the RCDDs step in for outside plant, multi-building campus runs, and dense data-center work — which happens in-house before the install crew shows up.
Repeat work is the norm. KIT’s Lehigh Valley cabling work spans school districts, manufacturers, and commercial and IT-services firms. KIT has delivered more than 100 projects in the Lehigh Valley over 25+ years, and 3,400+ commercial projects statewide since 2020 — more than five projects per client on average.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. High-bay distribution buildings are core KIT cabling work across the Lehigh Valley’s warehouse market, from the Lehigh Valley Industrial Park system to the big-box belt west of Allentown. KIT cables them for re-rackable floor layouts, dock-door sensors and scanners, and the camera and access-point runs the rest of the building rides on.
