Spectrum just ran fiber to my house and they left the wire running inside exposed. It looks like the installer was a little lazy about it. I would think you would want to pop the conduit into the box and not have it exposed. Let me know what you think
They also left you like 6 miles worth of slack for no reason.
Your Lead-in cable and internal patch lead cable need to be in conduit, I’m sure it’s in the cabling standards. That’s non compliant work right there. Is that box even screwed to the outer wall?
Source 🤣. Armchair installer
Been working in the Telco/I.T industry for 20 years.
Telco or it. Because i can assure you they’re not the same. Thus kinda proving my point
You obviously have no idea.
what about the APC to UPC … thats always good
That is messed up. The fiber should be coming through the box in the bottom left or right, not through the bottom through some tube.
Guessing you never worked in the field as an ISP tech.
You where saying https://www.reddit.com/r/HomeNetworking/comments/17v8s44/spectrum_fiber_install_updated_picture/
I know shit when it see it. Guessing you make a lot of shit.
This is what work order / project pay looks like. IE; installer gets paid X amount of dollars when he closes out a work order versus hourly pay until he closes out the work order. In my opinion at least… 🤷🏼♂️
while it will work neatness counts. I would have them come back out an fix it.
They just did, looks much better now and by better I mean how it should’ve been done the first time haha

You can always get one of these patch cables SC/APC in the length of your choice to replace that blue UPC cable.
It should be sc/apc to sc/upc. The ONU is upc
So the correct length of this patch cable
.
The only silver lining here is that they left you enough Slack to pretty much put your network rack anywhere on the property 🤣
Could have left more fiber in the box
I had Spectrum fiber and they did some crap like this. I was glad when AT&T came and ripped it out for their fiber. What are they offering you? 1000 down and 500 up? Or are they symmetrical now?
Better than 90% of cable installs. Most importantly do you have connection?
If it bothers you put some split loom on it
wow, that looks DIY.
That’s a horrible installation. Send them the picture and ask them to remedy ASAP.
cut the conduit back, remove the box from the wall and secure it so the conduit goes through the bottom left or right knockout on that box. Why they didn’t do that from the beginning is a mystery.
Nope. That’s not correct. I’d never let any of our installers leave the cable that exposed.
