Over the last few months, I've noticed some really interesting installations of fibre around central Wellington, and Eden Terrace in Auckland (where I've been working). I have also seen some truly interesting photo's from other members, which I thought would be great to share.
This isn't a swipe at the folks doing the work - it's complicated, you can't please everyone (or even anyone at times) - there are some niceties with copper you can't take with fibre.
So please share photo's with the community - the good and the bad - so we can see how this super project, which has no real comparison except with the original rollout of phone lines in the 20's, is actually going.
I'm not due for fibre in my street till January - naturally just after the roads and pavements have beautifully replaced and resealed - so it would be good to see how much 'learning' is going on.
Pictures are good!
Below two images from an install I saw at the top of Abel Smith Street in Te Aro, Wellington. The public road bends to the right, but there are 14 houses up a walkway - which isn't straight and rises about 70m from the street. The CORE network was installed in conduit attached to the public handrails, and branched off in 2 places at right angles (HARD right angles) to serve the whole area.
