Re: Re: Fibre to the premises - US




What understreet trunking would that be?

I caught the NTL installers trying to run the cable over the top of our
flowerbeds, and then across the drive in a shallow gulley covered with
loose
gravel from the drive.  Their response was "well is anyone going to
drive
over it?" (as if anyone would do something as daft a drive a car on a
driveway)

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised to see their cables duck-taped to the
road surface.

Fobre to the Premises requires somewhere nearby to hub from.  The
cablecos run fibre to their street boxes, but BT dont.  So expect it
from your cable supplier well before BT get there.  They are already
within "the last mile" distance of your house, and have
understeet
trunking to get to you from their streetbox.
