Wyandotte Municipal Services is a not-for-profit service provider located in Wyandotte, Michigan. The services that WMS provides are electric, cable telecommunications, and water supply and treatment to the City of Wyandotte. WMS was created by local residents more than 100 years ago. The City of Wyandotte, Michigan is the only community to own and operate its own power plant, water treatment plant, and cable TV headend.

The system consists of:

  • Over 275 digital channels
  • Digital pay-per-view selections
  • Two Public, educational, and government access (PEG) cable TV channels without additional charge

The system contributes five percent of gross revenue to the city's general fund. The system is up-to-date. It was rebuilt from the headend to the consumer in 1998. The system converted to digital in 2014, coinciding with a rebranding into Wyandotte Cable. Again, WMS also owns the lines and they are separate from surrounding communities. It consists of:

  • 25-miles of fiber optic cable backbone
  • 72-miles of coaxial cable
  • 3,000 strand miles of fiber optic cable

The system has its benefits over the other communities, both in monthly service charges and in customer service.

WMS is currently in the process of replacing it's coaxial cable system and headend with a fiber optic network. The fiber network will be ready for use soon.
