Was subbed and youtube decided to unsub me. Resubbed. 12 years in telecom, good stuff. Never a dull moment.

Woah that’s weird 🤔 I really appreciate it tho. Thanks for watching! We have a discord community server if you’re interested. Lots of great techs and people in the industry.

Thank you for providing inspiration in installing fiber optic cables. By the way, I am also a fiber optic technician from Indonesia 🇮🇩

I’d set the ladder up on the side of the pole opposite to where the drop is coming from on that long drop so you can pull back instead of pulling to the side. Saves your shoulders that way.

[@FyBurz]

@@Wav10001 yeah I agree but I’m left handed and having to hammer in the hook in my right is harder😅

[@PhillHills]

Lov watching your content. Interesting seeing how the same fibre nodes are installed in each country. Here in the UK, always vertically and directly on the poles.

[@FyBurz]

Yea that’s the worst way to build out the plant. No offence to you lol.

[@That08civicsi]

Have you consider using a positioning belt ?....helps when trying to pull long spans is more stable and still can hook the lanyard on the strand as fall protection

[@FyBurz]

@@That08civicsi I have one. And use them in certain situations. Definitely would recommend to less experienced climbers

[@austinreeves5221]

I like it. Just curious why dont you you clean the fiber

[@FyBurz]

@@austinreeves5221 I should. I ran out of wipes. Been kinda lazy on getting more. But it’s not detrimental. Fibre with gel on it definitely needs alcohol wipe.

[@Akz-xc1gu]

​@FyBurz as a fibre tech I've seen loads of PON faults because of dirty fibres

[@FyBurz]

I agree. But this isn’t dirty 😅 it’s a clean splice and you can see on the splicer if it’s dusty or dirty. Once I get more wipes I’ll use them. But like I said I haven’t had any issues.

[@jamess1787]

The outside of the fiber doesn't matter, it's the splice and connectors that matter. Wiping down the outside of the core doesn't hurt, and usually it's to get rid of gel or "the sticky goop". Fiber end needs to be clean, and if for some reason dirt got I to the splice: the fusion spliced would tell you to need to resplice.

[@FyBurz]

Yup exactly. If I had gel on them I would definitely clean. Usually if I get a clean cleave and put it right into the splicer there’s no issue. Unless I’m in a dusty environment.

[@DdosedRS]

Those were some long spans... These are the circumstances i would be running a 2f drop, save me tons of time in the future :)

[@FyBurz]

Don’t have 2F that long 🤷🏻‍♂️🥲

[@DdosedRS]

@@FyBurz That sucks :(

[@dogfood2461]

Who comes back through and splices into it? What type of ONT do you guys use? Do you ever have to hang bullets?

[@FyBurz]

@@dogfood2461 the tech, I think Nokia ONTs. And bullets like for strand ?

[@112Haribo]

interesting that you brought the splice box all the way down on that pole. is it always done like that? I thought they hang the splice boxes up high so nobody can mess with them

[@FyBurz]

Maybe a copper splice. But it’s way more difficult to fuse fibre at the top of a pole safely without a bucket truck. This is also on private property. So if it gets messed with it’s on the customer. On public poles and lines with strand this would have been an aerial splice.

[@duderino743]

good video bro

[@FyBurz]

@@duderino743 thanks duderino 🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@1SheepishWolf]

We put at least 50-100ft of service loop at the tap out here in my market. Do you guys just change the whole drop with those premades?

[@FyBurz]

@@1SheepishWolf for what purpose ? In my opinion it’s messy and unnecessary.

[@1SheepishWolf]

@@FyBurz more service loop never hurts, and it gives more room for splicing.

[@FyBurz]

We don’t splice our drops into the tap here. It’s plug and play so 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Gamelover22478]

Are there 2 of you working on the Job normally ?

[@FyBurz]

@@Gamelover22478 yes and no. Normally I’m alone. But during my busy season I have someone with me

[@jordansoviet23]

Can't believe that there's almost no utility pole around yet you managed to get it done.

[@FyBurz]

What do you mean 🤔I ran the drop along poles

[@jordansoviet23]

@FyBurz I mean the distance between poles is almost unbelievable

[@FyBurz]

Oh yea, its pretty common here on private property. I’ve done 110m spans. But it’s at customer risk. Over manufactured spec

[@jordansoviet23]

@@FyBurz while here in my country every telecommunications company has its own utility pole so there's lots of it are unsightly or even blocking pedestrian sidewalk at some area. PLDT, Dito, Globe, Converge, Sky Cable that's the telcos here. The latter also serves cable TV service as well.

[@FyBurz]

@jordansoviet23 they all use their own poles??

[@phonedude1000]

Why are you not cleaning the fiber with isopropyl alcohol

[@FyBurz]

I think I explain in the video I ran out of wipes. And also it doesn’t impact the fuse at all if the fibre was dirty I’d see it in the splicer. Alcohol is mainly for cleaning gel off loose tube fibre. This isn’t that.

[@phonedude1000]

Why are you not cleaning the fiber with isopropyl alcohol prior to cleaving the fiber

[@phonedude1000]

Well I can only say that I have been splicing for over 30 year and to keep your splicer in good working order you should be cleaning your fiber prior to splicing

[@FyBurz]

Definitely good advice.

[@gabriellalande2249]

you don't clean your fiber before you splice?

[@FyBurz]

Normally I do, I was out of wipes when I did this. It’s not service affecting there’s no gel or anything like that. As long as the core is clean it’s all good. I definitely should clean but again it doesn’t really change anything the service works perfectly.

[@gabriellalande2249]

@FyBurz I must say as a tech and ex splicer it triggers me a bit hehe

[@FyBurz]

@gabriellalande2249 yea I get it. I’m pretty ocd with stuff. But it genuinely doesn’t make a difference lol. I can visually see on the splicer if it’s dirty and If I’m working in a dusty or dirty environment I’ll make sure it’s clean. 😅
