I wonder if these are the new FTTP cables that are meant to speed up deployment of FTTP? They are dated 2016. I do know how they are different, but can't say as who knows what's in the public domain.

I don't work on the FTTP side myself so couldn't say for sure anyway.

Hate to say it, but that could be nothing to do with FTTP. I often see that sort of thing on roadworks.org round and there's no FTTP here.

What I would say is a JB26 is a small box. Usually something larger would be used for FTTP.

Cymru123, where abouts are you? Im on the Broadhaven exchange in Pembs. We also had all the overhead work done last January and since then nothing.

I cannot get any info whatsoever from OR, so have contacted our AM Paula Davies. On the 3/11 he wrote to the Welsh Region Manager of OR asking for more details of when anything more was to happen, and for OR to also contact me directly. To date still no response from them!

Thanks guys for the responses. I wonder what they are going to use the JB26 for then. Time will tell.

Vale Of Glam area. We've been reassured from quite high up the BT Group that all the FTTP deployment works to and within the village should be done before the Christmas Period (helps that our MP seems to know and is friends with the NGA Director and our AM is in constant contact with the Wales NGA Programme Manager). Was also told that theworks being done in the village at the moment are related to the fibre deployment.

Updating this - FTTP is now partially available. Manifolds were placed on new and existing poles where there was room, some of which were shared by there appliances but as said in other posts there needs to be adequate space.
