Re: New Bell Construction said by TLS2000:Ontario is more urbanized because the vast majority of the population lives near Toronto, Ottawa and maybe London. Even the ones who don't live near those cities are close to other cities like Kingston or Thunder Bay.
Much of Ontario has a very sparse or non-existent population. Most of Ontario's population is in the Greater Golden Horseshoe. Even London and Ottawa are drops in the bucket compared to the western-end of Lake Ontario. |

I know it's bit off topic but it goes with the discussion , Hydro-Quebec started replacing the pole in my area a few years ago and my side of the street was done in the fall of 2011 , the other side as yet to be done.
They added a few more poles so the existing cable and telephone wires can't be used. Videotron came about a month ago and installed a new wire , now bell is left and like Videotron they will have to put a new wire so will they put fiber or copper or both , i suppose they will put copper but it will be interesting to see what they do. |

| It could go either way. If all of the telephone infrastructure in your area is aerial they might just put up fibre and be done with it, but there is also back-end and customer-end infrastructure that needs to be in place before they switch. Switching cable from coax to fibre is a hell of a lot easier in that regard, because you can put the ONT right onto the telephone pole and only run coax from the pole to the customer. There's some rural areas around here that have setups like that. |

said by SLAMtech:Very well looks to be a 7330 going in. First box is a fibre fed box already for pots(could also be hdsl fed) and second box is a distribution OPI.
It also could be a FTTH CSP going in if any new development is going on.
One thing I must note that in the rurals the regular under 5km distance for DSL does not generally apply. The cable guage is lower and pushes the DSL further than normal. Seen a sub on a 7330 that was installed in the rural and he was just under 7km away and was receiving full adsl attainables 8128/928.
SLAMtech,
Just wondering if you had any information on the equipment in my post updated as of today (the google earth file with more pictures).
Was wondering if you can tell me about the equipment installed at Achray Road and Forest Lea Road. Are you able to tell if they are Stingers or 7330's?
I am learning quite abit on how DSL networks are made through this mini-project....
Thanks

Thanks R Just an FYI and I don't know if this is still the case, but Aecon had the contract for Bell work around Pembroke a couple of years ago. Not likely you'll see Bell vehicles constructing pedestals, unless it's an inspector.... |
