Hi there
I need some advice and maybe a little education.
We are doing a reno at home and installing a structured wiring enclosure as part of it. We will be pulling the RG6 and Cat6 ourselves but leaving any electrical work to a real sparky.
Our street doesn't get fibre until late 2015 but I would like to make it easy for that to be installed when the time comes.
Our structured wiring cabinet/enclosure will be on the opposite side of the garage to the current ETP.
My understanding of the fibre rollout is that Chorus will pull some fibre from the street to my existing ETP.
We'd like all of the fibre gear (ONT, gateway) in the wiring cabinet so we need to run some conduit up the inside of the wall behind the ETP.
Once the conduit reaches the roof space can the conduit stop and the fibre cable just be live in roof space like any other wire or do we need to run conduit up the wall, across the roof, and down another wall into the wiring cabinet/enclosure?
Also, can I buy a length of fibre and pull the cable into the right place so it is ready for next year?
Cheers
J
