It's heartwarming to see how much slack you leave, here in Italy they pull the exact amount from the split tray to the house termination box for the router 🥲. I had to fool them and mark a position 10 meters far from the router real installation, so i had the chance to pull back a couple loops for slack. 😅

Here in the UK we are fortunate that our national telco has installed ducting to every house where service is UG. When fibre comes along they fish through the existing duct up to the customers property then penetrate the wall and install an ONT. If no existing duct is available they'll install at your cost. If the duct is blocked they will clear it free of charge though. I had an engineer here for 3 hours fishing a fibre through my duct to the street, and the pit is practically at the bottom of my drive like this one was! 😂 Aerial is a little simpler as they can just tag onto the existing copper and use that route. Businesses are a little more tricky though as generally they're having more than a single strand. In these cases they'll often put a splice point outside. We have a weird setup where Openreach own and maintain most of the physical infrastructure but are forced to allow other telcos to lease it. I guess that way they can enforce standards - or so they say!

I'm just going through the installation diploma now for fibre (in the uk) and this video looks like every step is a shortcut. Can you imagine leaving a duct open like that here and someone seeing it, even if you are a few yards away, you'd get f**ked and probably sacked with no barrier. Just how it is. Doesn't even bother with a glass waste box, just spaffs it onto the ground.

I made a duct for fiber when I had to replace the mains power cable to my home. The old one was up in the air, while the new one is buried. Just got a 30 mm stiff hose condiut and laid it in the same deep trench. Had to wait six years before fiber was finally distributed in my area. I am living out in the sticks on an Norwegian island, so no fiber distributed without funding from the government and muncipality.

Great work if your goal is job security. Going through a gravel driveway should be deeper and/or in conduit for added protection and ease of access in the future. Also, 2-3 inch depth in the lawn is just asking to get cut if they aerate the lawn. Finally, no conduit leading up the the NID or even a clamp securing the fiber? I assume you are a sub contractor who is paid per job?

Any cable running across a driveway should be buried deeper than that. What if they have a concrete driveway or apron installed. That cable would be history with no markings or knowledge of what you are digging into. I install cabling through building and I understand you have a job to do, but this is a problem waiting to happen. Are there building codes that require a deeper installation?

Many people worry that too shallow a buried optical cable will affect its use, but in fact, due to the armor of the outdoor optical cable itself, it is not so easily damaged. Theoretically, 15CM of backfill soil is enough without being damaged by external forces.

Nice video, was very interesting to see how fiber is installed. However, I do have some questions, why do you take pictures during the installation? Is it going to part of some final report and proof the install was done correctly to show to the customer or more because of dogging any possible liabilty of incorrect install? Other final question, why is the fiber cable places just a few inch under the grass without any protection? Would it be better to have digged in deep some sort of pipe and have the fibre cable blown in that pipe, or is it a choice of the customer and less work is more cheap? Thank you in advance

The employers like to have us upload certain pics to prove codes we are claiming for payment , but it also shows some quality checks they wanna see. It may not be super deep but the plastic and fiberglass rods inside the jacket really protect the tiny fiber. It can take a decent hit from a shovel before it was damaged. The customer would have to have a pipe installed before we arrive, we dont provide them.

This must be a joke? We have to use conduit or even ducts to dig in a UG cable, also the minimum depth is 30cm optimum would be at least 60cm. No capping onto the line in is also a bit weird, we put capping on top of the cable so it is completely protected before it enters the CSP / customer box. I also find it concerning that the guy not even for a kneeling pad or at least knee pads on their trousers.

Nice clean job. I am waiting on my local utility company to finish my neighborhood's underground install. They installed the orange conduit 10 months ago and have not been back since then to install the fiber cable in the conduits. They have pushed forward the availability date three times now. First it was mid summer 2023, then fall 2023, then early 2024 and now they are saying they will call when it is available. They were claiming supply chain issues. Do you see supply issues? Or lack of technician issues? They are offering 1 Gig or 2.5 Gig. I want the 2.5 gig for the faster ethernet port then possibly downgrade to the 1 gig later.
@joeslightwork
@joeslightwork 10 ай бұрын
I would say its just lack of man power to pull the fiber through the orange pipes. Its a booming job and there are so many different sub companies, sometimes in the same area. They get pulled around to different priority orders or repairs on screwups. The 2.5gig is truly wasted unless your gonna direct ethernet those devices and those devices need the capability of 2.5 or a 10gig port to even use it. What ever fiber they run to house will handle any future speeds over 2.5gigs. 500meg is usually all any regular streaming / gaming house would need. Most wifi struggles to get over 500mbit depending on the placement and obstacles between the router and device. Mesh wifi does work pretty well but I recommend running a ethernet between the mesh routers.

@@joeslightwork I agree 2.5 is overkill but I want the ONT used for the 2.5 gig service as they have 10 gig Ethernet ports. If you order the 1 gig service, the ONT only has 1 gig Ethernet port which maxes out in mid 900 mbps. As for WiFi, I have a WiFi 7 router that will easily handle the 2.5 gig as it is currently doing 2 gig with Xfinity. The company is using XGpon so you would think they would only use ONT’s with the 10 gig Ethernet ports and have only one device across the board for future upgrades. 🥴

Nah that's still fine, just - if you're digging more than 2-3 inches deep, don't stomp your shovel in between the first 2 to 15 inches. These buried/outdoor commercial infrastructure grade "cables" are incredibly tough. Not indestructible by any means, but you're not gonna chop it without substantial force or a sharpened edge. If you _do_ have defined plsns or loose ideas about doing relevant work or just wanna be able to dig without worry, you can pay a little bit extra to have the fiber run a longer path but one where you're much less likely to do any digging. And/or, pay anther bit on top to run that fiber through a protective pipe/conduit, potentially even a double wall conduit with better drainage. If you do decide to go that route, keep in mind that said pipe while adding a bit of cost, can also be used for many kinds of potential future additions, without need for digging again. Or just greatly improve ease of service, repairs and upgrades. So make it's at least 1.5" pipe, better 2" 2-2.25"--2.5" might be big enough to pull a whole new mains cable. Or additional power for future needs of higher electric capacity, for EV charging, electric heating, selling excess power from solar panel roofs back to the grid etc. Ideally you wanna use double-walled with a smooth inner internal surface (outer is usually corrugated). And make double extra triple sure to attach one (or even 2) strong, moisture resistant, very-long-term stability line or stainless wire, to the fiber cable before pulling that through so that you have a puller line (or another one for backup) ready whenever you need to pull something though it. Otherwise you might have to use that fiber cable as the puller line, pulling it out in the process. It's also a good idea to attach a new puller line/wire to whatever you're pulling through, thereby replacing the puller line you just used.

The substandard line placement is not this mans fault, it's what the service provider (telco/CATV) is paying for. They distance themselves from the install by sub contracting it out. They don't inspect or provide minimum code and on the chance it is hit, then they will just replace it (sometimes charging subscriber). It also get them out of being charged for Dig Alert one-call 811(each utility pays every time look ups are requested). If you noticed, there is no flags or paint on ground marking utilities which is required by law. In California you can be both Criminally and Civilly liable to striking other buried utilities. This man is working hard and making a living...its not his fault his company and the company that hired them (to me he looks like a contract worker) did not negotiate a contract that satisfies local laws and good practices.

All the signs I know you subco for a low-rate carrier: -dome splices in grade level boxes, not terminals like there should be -hand-pick-axing across driveways -nothing connectorized -clean the distribute end but not the splitter/pigtail? Dome splices in grade level boxes turn into popsicle sticks in the winter. That's not on you, that's on the cheap carrier you work for. But hand trenching across gravel driveways? Your back will hate you when you're older. But hey, anything for that complete right?

$6 dollars a foot for gravel burial and $40 flat burial rate up to 150ft .Yes its a low budget company and they train un this way. I just do as im told. They atleast use commscope drops and are very strong. I recently switched employment to a smaller competitor and things are alot better now.

😢Gee Mate. You make hard for yourself digging trenches for a cable. You need a long handle pick, or a motorised trench digger. Also why have you just buried the Optical Fiber Cable without conduit. (Pipe) What protects the cable to the House Junction Box, from Brushcutters? Hope they don't do that shabby type of work at my home when we have cable connected to my home in the next 6 months. (Sunshine Coast - Queensland - Australia)

Nbnco is doing the exact same as this now by shallow burying it unless you have an existing pipe that isn't crushed, as I'm sure you've now found out.

2 10' sticks of 1/2" PVC conduit would make that run across the driveway last a lot longer! Those rocks will cause problems over time. The tracer wire was supposed to go around the screw that secures the strength member. With all the other slack you left you on other parts you cut that one short! After all that work burying the cable you cavalierly cut the jacket off at the entry gland! It doesn't hurt to leave 6-8" of protected fiber in the box. Just like you left protected fiber on the section going into the house. Hopefully you are more careful with the cleaved waste fiber inside a house. That stuff penetrates the skin easily and then breaks off! A piece of scotch tape is a good way to capture shards. It's kinda irresponsible to leave fiber cutoffs laying around. The tray in the service box is where the extra fiber is looped, not behind. All in all a competent and done in a hour+ job. Most I have worked with don't have to bury the fiber themselves since another crew does that with a vibratory plow.

We dont have to bury either just a money perk and our bury crews only break out the machine if its over 100ft. I have since bought a cleaver with a waste basket. The rest was just how we were told to do the job.

On customer premisis fibre only needs to be installed between 9 and 11 inches deep in soil where there is no vehicular access ( a garden lawn). This installation is correct and complies with standards.

That is too shallow for a driveway in Cablevision 18" to 24" is the requirement and PVC schedule 30 under driveways they will cut that if they blacktop the drive. I did fiber design and coax construction for 35 years this dig would not fly under that driveway in the company I worked for. I hatted that dig for the drop run up too the home in the winter and rain, that depth was standard for service tech replacement.

сказать что я в шоке от увиденного, это ни чего не сказать. Я поражен насколько страны западного мира отстали даже от норм и требований даже Советского Союза . Парни у нас на пост советском пространстве каждое частное домовладение имеет минимум один кабельный ввод диаметром 100 мм и это выполняется еще на этапе строительства дома. Позор. Удачи в работе и мирного неба над головой

I would expect such an installation in India or another country where the level of these works is low... how deep is it, 5cm? this is a very bad and bad joke. The minimum is 30 cm for sure. And a bare cable into the ground... well, the protection for it costs about 1 Euro per meter, that would be expensive... better for cheap, temperatures and humidity will eat it up much sooner. more than ever, this video should have an inscription: how not to do it! 🙃

You’re not installing internet. The cable just facilitates data transfer that happens to be network traffic. Internet and the layer 1 medium that carries it is not synonymous

?? No way you are that entitled. It is mostly out of context for the fiber installers for higher layers. What else would that cable even be used for in residential context? Direct DWDM to a datacenter MMR? Ffs
