Re: [northeast] Manhattan Apartment Building Wired for FiOS

#1,the mouldings look great and unless you could have every tenant home at the same time on every floor to have holes drilled through floors and ceilings to run all the cables to the bsmt this is the fastest way to get fios service setup. #2,this method is basically what cable tv did except they used small plastic tracks with snap on covers.The crown moulding now hides both utilities. #3,if the building owner doesn't want fios service in the building,then he can say NO,(although i think he might get some flack from tenants).#4,VZ can only do this work with permission of the building owner. I have a feeling that the building owner doesn't walk away "empty handed".


MDU

@rcn.com

Well, RCN did MDU's in New York City as well. Mine has the same deal as this one right now except the lines were drilled thru the stairwells. The difference however is that my building Im in now is fiber to the basement, then coaxial and pots quad shielded RG6UQ to the apartments.

In this case it looks like its fiber end to end. Those FONS boxes are smaller than the boxes we have on each floor.

I simply said that it isn't their responsibility to have to go out of their way for Verizon. If I owned the building, I would make them pay me to drill holes. Hell, in a few years they'll be making thousands of dollars per month off that one building. The owner probably won't get anything.
