In reply to a post by pluralist:
Don't forget there is a minimum radius needed for fibre cabling bends. AIUI it can't be nearly unseen round door frames or any other change of direction. Unlike electrical wiring.


Should be fine.

True patriotism is being able to criticise your country out of a desire to see it be better and requires holding it to higher standards than the rest of the world. Fake, plastic patriotism is spamming pictures of flags while pointing at the behaviour of others as excusing our own shortcomings, if not outright denying them.

Exceptionalism diminishes, cooperation enhances.

The inner cable can readily follow your intended path, the outer cable cannot. Our new fibre runs 30m over a road to our gable wall. The OR techie showed me the cable is 2.5mm diameter white plastic with a woven Kevlar layer covered in heavy black plastic which is stripped off for internal use.

He said the 'full' cable is 6mm wide and very easy to kink so he installed a big loop where the cable runs from the suspension eyebolt through the gable wall and roofspace where the outer layer is stripped off to leave the flexible inner cable to drop behind the door, along the skirting and into the box as shown. Hope this helps.

You've labelled it FTTC cable pic and in the link wink.

Please disregard, thanks, FTTC refers to my BB folder of pix and records, wonder is that I can still distinguish between fibre cable and my garden hose frown

Easy. If what goes through a hose is leaked something might be damaged. If what goes through a fibre-optic cable leaks your bank balance possibly takes the hit.

I do honest think it biggest con by Plusnet to force customer sign up 24 months contract know it will be 2 x CPI + inflation rise to bite the customer and even worse case you are NOT allow to cancel the contract for any future price rise.

PLUSNET ARE THE WORSE ASHAMED COMPANY EVER! I am glad I am no longer with plusnet for any broadband service, mobile anymore.

Plusnet - NO FUTURE!

Lol you sound like a child.

Almost all providers are doing the exact same thing with contract lengths and inflationary rises.

It’s the regulator that should be getting the brunt of these complaints.

No don't call me that. I ain't a child. I know how rip off and conned UK are. Peoples just fall for it. For me I WILL NEVER NEVER NEVER sign up 24 months contract ever again.

My ISP is rolling on contract with no price rise ever! (The best ISP I am with)
