We’re allowed to have chickens here in Tampa too.. roosters as well. They are primarily in Ybor City, the city’s Latin / historic district. They are allowed to run free. Got a rooster under my house once… no bueno!!

What a clever PON design! It makes excellent use of the capabilities of fiber optics.

Awesome video! Love the FOD! Great work 😁

Isn't this the same cable you sent me ? OH i like your new Jonard stripper :)

First!!

you are dialing in the van - in lieu of trash can add some luan panels to ribs of van and make a more compact trash storage space or use old tv boxes and couple contractor bags - space is a premium - you should add a laptop, good lighting and a small ceramic heater, maybe even foam board insulation - also why not be proactive and add some wifi sniffing gear, gps, and a sound system. at any rate moving up to van even if you don't trick it out much more is a major improvement - you want to keep environment controlled and lower stress - hepa pos pressure ventilation may be a feature to add?

12:45 Man I wish you have recorded that directly. Very cool.

I'm going to assume Kirk is over there with the vacuum cleaning his room and that his mom shouldn't disturb him.

think about picking up a ribbon splicer yet?

Get a sheet of MDF (or whatever your equivalent is) for that bench top. You can draw on it, staple to it and replace it each time it fails or gets too torn up

Nice video. I developed fibers and amplifiers for 25 years. Nice to see how you work with them in the field. You have a good understanding of how everything works. I was putting connectors on a bunch of fibers. I had just finished one of the last of them when the tension in the fiber caused the fiber to jump. When I looked down the fiber had jumped into the jaws of my Miller strippers. Fibers are suicidal

I always love watching you work. May your fiber be in service for a hundred years.

Nice new van! Do you like it more than the mini van.

Cool seeing how cleaving fixes the reflecting in real time

I also see a Jonard Tools Cleaver :) YEAH !!

I WIN ME FIRST !!!

Excellent (as always) Brice! Don't worry about not filming the move, customers come first. We're all just very grateful you bring us along at all! Very sorry to hear about the car, people just don't care anymore.

I have a question my community wants to build a small ftth network for about 50 houses what kind gpon components would be required?

congrats on the splice van - will help you scale out faster and safer - you will get it dialed in

Are you going to cut a doggie door into the rear as a pass through to help keep the winter wind off you?

Hello Bruce , you have an amazing channel . I'm a noob to all this but I'm looking to learn as much as possible.Quuick question let's say GPON and XGS-PON are you limited to the amount of clients you can service by bandwidth each user is allocated? Like in XGS-PON since each user can get a higher bandwidth, can you on a XGS-PON network give each user 1mbs and have a larger customer base ? Instead of offering gigabit services . I hope I made some kind of sense .Thanks again and keep rocking

YAY your still around !!

congrats on the van :DDD

Let’s goo that splice van is sick congrats G solid video as always keep em coming 🙌🙌

A lot of the time the air compressors are used for pulp cable. Instead of the copper wires having the colored rubber coating, they are wrapped with a paper/pulp material. If any moisture gets into the cable then the copper wires short together. The air compressors keep the cable pressurized and keep the moisture out. The paper/pulp material cuts down on weight and cable diameter for high count cables.

Hey dude, nice to see you finally got a splicevan, definitely will be nice when it begins to get cold. That cold wind becomes sharp af after a while.😂

Can you do a video trouble shooting a splitter pon with an OTDR when you run in to that type of trouble ???

Here in New York state I once had the pleasure of witnessing a Verizon splice van that had spliced a large bundle with one end of the cable going out the side door and one end going out the back. It was a sight to behold. And a lot of work to do over.

Mercedes can take their sprinters and shove them all where the sun don't shine. Get your 5 years out of it and sell it, and run. 5 years and a day you'll be running into all sorts of headaches (actually, about 2 years in you'll start getting them but they'll be covered under warranty... Still doesn't help with your day to day.) Ran a small fleet of about 6, 2013's, 2016's and 2019's and the newest 2021.... All a huge money pit, none of them worth owning unless they're low kilometers and you plan on touring with them for a month or two a year.

I would of liked to see the inside of that box on the apartment once you where done to see the layout.

Can someone tell me what the air compressor hooked to the verizon main line is doing?

Are you going to put the 2 PONs from the OLT4 onto the OLT8 so you can get rid of the 4?

How hard is it to Upgrade a PON-Line? Imagine a Housing Unit with a 32 Splitter already on high speed PON that needs more speed? Is it necessary to dig everything up again, or is it possible to Upgrade the existing Line(s) to be an AON line that can handle a higher throughput per fiber?

solid video, great info love the set up keep these videos coming

If that POP is an upgrade? How bad was the old one? For battery back up with solar, look into an all in one Delta Pro. I have one with the two extra batteries. 10.8 kWh of storage. I drain mine to 50% every night and fully recharged almost everyday. I have four 545 watt panels connected to it. You can also eliminate your UPS because the Delta Pro is also a 3600 watt inverter.

How do you handle public ip address to your customers?

Ah so in the case of the 8CH Single fiber out, the C21 (Side A) goes to C22 (Side B). Both of those are Mux/Demux, and the channel refers to the TX wavelength (which is the RX wavelength on the B side). However in a dual fiber out, the channels on both sides are the same (C21-C21) because the TX go on 1 fiber and RX come on another keeping them separate. The Arista has the DWDM optics in it which transit/receive on certain wavelengths, which goes into the Mux/Demux, then over the dark fiber. Makes sense now, definitely is a nice easy way to do it IMO, no fancy DWDM gear, just switches, optics and passive Mux/Demux.

No one should be using FS Gear. its like routing all of our traffic through China

Why bother with 1G dwdm

Oooooof. Ubiquity.

Great job on the move! I always laugh at the vaults by Oldcastle becuase of.. Crown Castle. Yup doesn't mean Crown Castles in it! For the Arista management, we just did this yestearday, we moved the management IP form the actual int Management1 to the vlan itself, so interface Management1 ! (yeah theres nothing on it) But then under the vlan Interface vlan100 ip address x.x.x.x/x As long as that vlans tagged upstream, you can manage the switch. Then you don't need that loop cable. The new POP is a great work in progress. Nice amount of room for expanding the network. Can't wait to see the solar setup and the official UPS system.

Water tower can also run for a few days without power, that’s why they build towers. Obviously it can’t last forever, but gravity creates pressure or at least a few days to feed the town water system.

Just found your videos and I am really into them! I am really curious about ISP stuff and there just is not a lot out there on youtube to watch about it. Thanks for the hard work and I look forward to more!

WOO HOO !! You're moving right along man !! NICE WORK !

do some basic improvements to increase building's self esteem once you get over the high wire act

Are you planning to change that 20 Gbps LAG from the OLT to an MLAG once you get the second Arista online?

Great video! Love seeing the setup

Loving these videos! Can’t wait to see the solar integration! Thanks for your hard work on putting these videos out.

That's a lot of work in a short amount of time! Nice job. I would get rid of that 2u Tripplite UPS as soon as you can. When the battery dies, it turns of the entire ups and all output power. You have to send them back to Tripplite for a battery replacement. I had a bunch of them in my network quit on me at the 3 year mark. FWIW, I moved to CyberPower and have been super happy with them. I have about 60 of them in use on my campus. The majority of them are OR500LCDRM1U with the RMCARD205 management cards.
