F.I.T. is the only 100% fiber network in the City of Pryor Creek. We are Owned, Operated, and Supported by local personnel all living within 20 miles of our Main Office at 24 South Adair. Fiber Interactive Technologies was founded out of the desire to bring the entire city of Pryor Creek high speed Internet access. It didn't make sense to the owners that our City would be so far behind the rest of the surrounding communities in access to high speed connectivity.

Chris and Bart met in the attic at the Pryor Police Department while supporting the first phase of the City of Pryor Creek Wi-Fi rollout. They soon realized they shared a common interest in bringing better Internet service to Pryor. They kicked around starting a company since Chris knew the networking and Bart knew he could layout the design and run the operations of the infrastructure. They quickly realized they needed an expert in Fiber Optics with considerable experience in deployment of miles of fiber. That is where Philip came into the picture. Now with the company complete, they embarked on finding the best technology to provide service to Pryor. The Partners visited numerous cities the general size of Pryor to see what was the best type of network technology to consider. Since Fiber Interactive Technologies doesn’t have to rely on outdated copper lines of the past, we are building a fast, reliable, and scalable network that can change as the industry changes. Pryor has been very good to all of the Partners and were compelled to do something good for the City of Pryor.
