- This Customer is renoing his house and wanted me to do some home networking for him, Including rerunning his fibre drop to a new mast, upgrading his existing equipment and terminating some jacks in his home.

Again, Quality works and installation. I love when people think of good pathways of cabling a making things neat!
Hey man I appreciate it! Thanks again 😅
Nice to see an installer that takes pride in his work. As a cable lineman I’m constantly dealing with bad installers that box things in. Rub the drop below the attachment on the pole creating more work for me. Keep up the good work
Hey thanks man I appreciate it. If you can’t take pride in your work why do it 😅
Cheers from the east coast of canada
Hey man love your work Keep up with it
You're my mentor.
I appreciate that!
I've never had those mechanical ends last very long, usually only a year or so.
They are a standard here. I’ve gone back to homes years after and they work fine. They can definitely be faulty sometimes tho.
@@FyBurz We use to use them however the company noticed way to many bad ends and invested in every tech getting a fusion splicer so now we don't have that issue.
Where all the new videos at :)?
@@DdosedRS ah man soon I hope. Definitely planning to in the new year. Just a lot been going on
I didn't realize that it was the modem. Here in Toronto, they are still using a two-part setup. One box for the fiber optic line to come into (The docking panel) that also has a backup battery in it and another box for the actual modem.
You mean like an ONT before the modem ? They still do that here in certain applications. Mainly because before the NAH (network access hub) that I installed the modems don’t have pots for the phone lines but the NAH does so no need for the ONT
@@FyBurz exactly. I think with Voip taking over that will end soon. I know I have a newer setup and internet and tv and if I wanted phone would all be running on the IP network just under different VLANs.
@@PWingert1966 ok gotcha. Makes sense
You must work for one of the cable providers lol, Bell Canada uses a modem with onboard ONT and has for years.
Uo here in Toronto and Ontario the dominant cable and telecom providers are running corning RDX 6 fiber drop cables to individual homes and for larger buildings they are running 96-fiber in for example a 400-unit apartment building. But they usually have no more than 3 fibers in use. Primary, backup and a control line so they can have an external control network. In residential its just primary and backup. The reason they are doing this is it has no extra cost and if the homeowner splits them how into multi-tenant structures the fiber is already in place for up to three tenants. Most fiber to the aerial units ios96 fibers throughout the networks. For even social housing they are doing FTTB for cable using CommScope MD6000 x 2 and a 96 cable plus power from the utility room to the building with the described three fiber setup. This allows then to segment the network to different side of the building, and they can pull a fiber for a social housing setting the tenant support and client assisted living offices or for the landlord's rental office as a separate business line on its own segment.
Damn. But overkill. 6F is definitely more expensive than 1/2F
@@FyBurz NOt when your buying two million feet of cable a year and can decrease your truck rolls from four (head end to zone, pole to [pole, pole to house and termination in residence) to one when each truck roll is priced at about a thousand dollars each.
@@PWingert1966 like I guess 😅
Hi from the uk. I’m a fibre engineer over here , love your videos keep it up, the tool you use for taking the black plastic caps of to connect your fibre line , what’s it called we don’t have them here and trying to get hold of one.
Cheers

I’m not sure which tool you’re referring too, can you describe it?
It’s a called a CAN wrench. You can find them on Amazon
what kind of aerial FOC NAP do you use?
Those are Corning Optitap Naps
how much did all this cost the customer?
Nothing actually, let’s just say it was an exchange of favours.
