Thank you!

Almost at my year mark for fiber, but 18 years cable/satellite.

omni fiber , ohio and spreading out

@@naturallyrootedgrowers Oh man I'm in Ohio too

Not sure if its cheaper or what . Some of the areas they bought out do have the plug in MST style that make it nice, but all the new construction areas use these splice in style enclosures.

The clear tray I remove has color ranges written on them Blue through Aqua (12 colors) its a scheme that repeats the entire run on that huge main linedown the telephone poles or underground. Sometimes it will start with a different color depending how many houses are planned for that NAP enclosure. Sometimes might only have 4 colors to use, But there is backups in the tray under the top tray. But this was a blue to aqua, im the 3rd tech here so green is next. if you google 12 fiber colors it will show the order.

@@naturallyrootedgrowers Interesting, so its standardized. Once you run out of colors they need to add another optic fiber cable?

This is a complete install, i just wanted to record mainly the splicing in the air. In my other aerial video it shows the whole process even shooting red pen light to the cabinet to plug the real data light in.

Its the other fiber company in town.

Thank you. I just put up another ladder splice video that I'm fighting trees, treehouse and barn.

I think it might be easier to be away from the pole without things in the way.

Any level really, just depends how much of your life your gonna put into someone elses company. Im the grunt work, which is lowest paid Im sure. Im paid per job ranging $700-$1500 per week as a contractor . Most of the hire up positions need some basic to complex degrees and usually require more of your time on job. I perfer the lower end of this gig as with any other profession the hire up you go it turns into an adult babysitter job. I knock out my work , hang out with the fam or go onto the side hustles.

whatever you do do not do contractor work and go straight for the ISP. I work for spectrum and in my area you start out at $22/hr (goes to 24.20 after you graduate training). there are 5 field tech levels which is pole to house and you are making around $33/hr at ft5. if you go to maintenance (bucket trucks) once you max out there you are making around $90k/yr. great bennefits as well with all the good stuff and 6% 401k match and they throw an additional 3% into an RAP. Just do NOT be a contractor if you want good money. As a contractor you get paid per job which leads to (in most cases but not all) sloppy work and serious safety violations because you are rushing to make a paycheck.

The harness makes it safe and gives you a seat.

No protection to the public though. Unless pedestrians walk around with hard hats on over there?? Where I come from we have all our services underground so when we look at the sky it doesn't look like a cable birds nest 😂

@@mitchelltaniwha5220 its a whole lot easier to transfer to underground when your entire country is the size of one of our smallest states haha. And people here tend to have common sense so if they see someone working above them with tools they think "Hmm better not walk under them" instead of "how unsafe, should be underground im gonna walk under him he better not drop anything!"
