This is my attempt at documenting the FTTH installation process from a Telkom Techie.
Micro ducting to the telephone man hole on my lawn.
Fibre line pulled using the copper line.
The fibre termination block. 7 meters away from the manhole on my yard.
The said manhole
One of the two fibre strands to my home.
No breaks
its really thin...
Lazors omg...
the splice block up close and personal... I broke its virginity
The juicy stuff.
Spliced and done on the outside.
the splice block completed just before lock up and return to manhole.
The inside job
The ONT.
The whole process took 2hrs and 15mins till connection.
the speed results intl download.
