Max Span for FTTP

If a property is to be provisioned with FTTP through an overhead drop - is there a maximum span?

On the horizon here however, it has to come in over head as near impossible to go underground and the span is around 50+ metres.

I was told a couple of years back that the max span for fibre was around 67 metres, I cannot say either way if that has changed since then.

Hope that helps

Connectorised reels go up to 105m off the top of my head.

Just pinged our nabours from pole to fixing point on house, 52yds.

65 metres.

Thx all, from the man who knows 65 and another trusted source 67 ...

So, when it finally arrives, I should not have an issue of distance and I guess they use the existing copper to pull across.

They go up to 360m but you wouldn't do all that in a single span!

Ours from the DP in the BT Chamber, over to and up pole to the Manifold then over to the gutter of our home, down the wall to our CSP and that took about 43m of tubing give or take a meter or two.
So I would say not lower than that length, 65m like others are saying sound about right.

I think he's asking about the unsupported span from the pole to the premises.
