When a hospital’s network goes down, the consequences extend far beyond a frozen computer screen. Electronic medical records become inaccessible. Lab results stop flowing to physicians. Patient monitoring systems lose connectivity. In critical care environments, even a few minutes of network disruption can affect patient outcomes and cost healthcare organizations thousands of dollars per minute.

It reflects who we are as a family-owned organization, as accountable leaders, and as people who understand that what we build today underpins the critical infrastructure of tomorrow.
When Lehigh University approached Celerity Integrated Services with an ambitious vision to connect three separate campuses with a world-class fiber optic network, the stakes were high. The project needed to deliver not just connectivity, but redundancy, capacity, and reliability for one of Pennsylvania’s most prestigious research institutions.

The digital promise of modern education collided with the reality of aging copper cables that simply could not keep up.
