Never have I wanted to cut something so badly ✂️
Gravity is going to serve those connectors well 😅
Luxury is right! FiOS has been so hard to come by, especially in NYC. I guess some of the residents are cheap wads and rather have Sprectum, but atleast it’s available
A small rack and an ODF wouldn’t hurt.
Usually at least at newer buildings I have seen these are housed in a box like the one on the left. Most likely the one on the left is for cable.
The one on the top left is the fiber hub. That's the main feed into the building. The one below is a terminal which connects to all the fibers coming out of the greenish conduits. The four gray boxes are individual ONT which are probably for various data/phone connections(elevator/fire alarm/faxes) for the building.
All the weight pulling down on give fibers. Haha
They used conduit AND left some slack in the cable? Lucky
Aren’t they usually pre-terminated cables?
Is that paint drips all over the backboard and enclosures, or a water leak? 🤔
The luxury of being able to ignore cable management.
I have seen worse.
Bloody hell! Shouldn’t they build a proper termination instead of floating everything? One snag and it’s a freaky mess.
SNAFU
Looks like an install my company would do. Freaking slobs
Looks like at&t fiber
Yup...microduct to each unit. I've designed this same scenario multiple times.
