$2,000,000 DOLLAR FIBRE DROP 

Yeah, he really helped me out and definitely I’m glad I did it

Definitely 👍🏼

That's a temporary coax install, most likely going to be put underground

Yeah, I see it often to be honest. I assume their line ran short or som

@@FyBurz Usually its a pole replacement by power and that's what they have, so they use it. The CATV company doesn't always come out to fix it. Especially if nothing is broken and/or affecting customers.

It's way worse here in my country. Once an old or decrepit pole is replaced those lines/cables are dangling in the new pole using ropes or old messenger cables. Heck the electric company that owns the poles here literally cuts off old/dead cables and operational wires/cables to clean up the messy wires. In fact I witnessed the actual cutting off of non operational wires/cables almost two weeks ago. The old thick telephone cable was removed along with cable TV cable and of course operational fiber optic cables/drops wires. Although one section of the street is now cleaned off of dead cables, subscribers of telephone/internet/cable TV were left without those services for weeks now. Up to now the telecom providers (PLDT, Globe, Converge and Dito) are reconnecting them one by one. The latest was yesterday I saw linemen moving back and forth doing the reconnecting job. Even one telecom provider was putting up replacement main cable to their grid 😅 The last time it was really clean regarding the wire/cable arrangement here in my hometown was way back in 1994. That time we got our phone service for months now (when copper telephone cables are used), the telecom provider just removed their old cable and also the first time the cable TV provider installed their line the first time as well. I was just an 11 year old kid that time 😅😅

Thank you sir🙏🏼

Am I tripping or did I read this on another post 😅

@@FyBurz nope it was a similar comment about the same crappy job I did today.lol

@@glassonglass6347 yeah haha I was just playing. You got it done tho right ?

🤙🏼

Honestly just never had to, it’s not part of our protocol. Haven’t really had any issues. The odd time a tech comes back and says there’s issues with light. It’s either a bad port or a faulty drop.

One is tracer, the other is just to replace the string

And thanks man! On longer runs like this I try to replace string when I can. It’ll likely never be used.

Love that you took the time to fix up the MPT. It really shows care and quality to do it right, even when you don't necessarily have to. And it's always worth adding in a pull string for the future... Odds are it'll get twisted around the fibre and tracer and won't be usable, but luck might be on the next person's side 😂

Correct that’s for the catV or coax service

@@FyBurz Nice - and also Nice Drop, i love it to see, when House-Builders put thoughts in their Infrastructure - makes thing WAY easier in the long run.

No idea probably a long time. Too expensive I assume

I mean it is a drop to a 2mil house 😅. Appreciate it tho thanks!

Haha😅 don’t try at home. Decade of ladder experience gives me the confidence 😂

@@FyBurz brother I’ve only been in this whole telecom buisness for a year now, trust me I ain’t trying to that at home😂😭. I was a mechanic for 5 years before this so my ladder experience is none. I do fiber for a decent sized ISP and love it

@WheezySalmon sweet man love to hear it. 🤙🏼🤙🏼

It’s the same owner lol

Me too man me too. The whole world needs to communicate at light speed.

Not really anything outside the city or developments are aerial

@@FyBurz the reason is I am working on designing fttx for my county and I perfer the look of underground …. As almost all teleco is below ground

@@jordantekelenburg I mean if the infrastructure allows for it all the better it’s usually just a lot more cost-effective to go aerial but times are changing boring equipment and processes have gotten better and more efficient so who knows

Just gpon

Negative sir I’m in Canada no AT&T

@@FyBurz 🤦🏼‍♂️ I feel dump now for even making that comment haha. In texas AT&T is the only company that uses those MPT’s at my isp I work for I have to splice both sides 😂

@matthewford5943 that’s rough man. I’m glad I don’t have to 😅
