Fiber optic cable installation typically involves creating a direct path from the outside to the inside of a building. Here's how it is usually done:
Fiber Cable Installation Process
A fiber installer generally follows these steps:
- Drilling the Entry Point: The installer drills a hole through both the interior and exterior walls of the home. This is done to create a passage for the fiber optic cable.
- Running the Cable: The fiber optic cable is then carefully run through the hole, connecting the outside termination enclosure to the inside of the building.
- Connection to Termination Enclosure: Outside of your home there will be an enclosure where the fiber optic cable will terminate which then connects to the fiber cabling that provides your service.
Considerations during installation:
- The specific methods can vary based on building types, location, and local regulations.
- Professional installation is crucial to ensure optimal performance and minimize potential damage.
