You always come up with these really challenging phrases, Paul! They are great.
The term "apporterad" clearly is from the accounting field:
FAR:
Svenska
apport-
Engelska
in kind
Svenska
apportegendom
Engelska
capital contributed in kind
In other words, "apporterad" means assets of a non-monetary kind, like real estate, vehicles, or, like in this case, telecom trunkways, often contributed in exchange for shares in a corporation.

Now we still have to tackle "kanalisation". Since we are talking about an IT company it is most likely "telecom trunkways" they are referring to, i.e. elements of the physical build-up of the internet.
Here is a Swedish government text for reference, parts of which are in both Swedish and English.
First a few contextual definitions in Swedish:
Kanalisation
Rör eller annan anordning som anbringas i kanalisationsutrymme för att underlätta
etableringen av nät
Kanalisationsutrymme
Fysisk infrastruktur såsom väg, järnväg, kraftledning, mast eller torn som kan
användas för att underlätta utbyggnaden av kanalisation eller nät
Now on to a text in this same document that is both in Swedish and English:
Swedish
Kanalisationsutrymme
De statliga aktörerna Banverket, Vägverket samt Teracom och Vattenfallsbolagen bör upplåta sin infrastruktur såsom vägbankar, banvallar, master m.m. till operatörer som vill anlägga allmänna kommunikationsnät enligt lagen om elektronisk kommunikation.
English
Structures for telecom trunkway
Governmental actors Banverket, Vägverket, Teracom and the companies within Vattenfall that control infrastructures such as roads, railways, and masts should allow access to such infrastructures to operators who wants to deploy public networks in accordance to Swedish law on electronic communication.

An additional reference, in Swedish and English, on "apporterad" and "in kind", from ProZ KudoZ:
English term or phrase:against the contribution in kind valued this way
Swedish translation: motsvarande värdet av apporterad egendom
