Did you ever find out what AltNet was building in your patch using these boxes?

Zooming in I reckon it's 16: 8 white strain relief sleeves on the bottom row, 8 green on the middle. Only the top row has dust caps on both sides of the couplers.

With your magnifying glass inspector, can you see if they've inscribed the midspan fibre coming in with their autograph? 😉

Brsk.

Brsk.

Curious as I noticed that there is blurb on the Hexatronic website that they signed full-scale strategic partnerships with both CityFibre (quote from Greg Mesch) and Zzoomm amongst other providers.

I was aware that both these networks (and Virgin) use the very nearly equivalent HellermanTyton AFN for the DP/drop termination , so just wondered if they hadn't also started using Hexatronic for their DPs too.

There were cherry picker vans with Brsk, on the side, that installed the fibre from pole to pole.

There was a different name on the van with a huge roll of fibre (presumably) on a trailor being jointed at a chamber in the footpath at the start of this week. As I was driving I didn't catch the name.

The huge drum could have well been sub-duct that they were installing into the ducts between chambers for them to blow fibre through. Possibly a third party civils contractor doing that. The splicing/jointing and actual fibre related works sounds like it's being done by their own engineers (or at the least in their labelled vans).

Much outside plant, fibre and civils work is once, twice and thrice subcontracted these days.
