Stoppage Removed

fiber termination rackWhile we're sitting around waiting for the leaser to correct the "water intrusion issue" Greg Eaton had his crew working -- the fiber that had been coiled up on the floor of the 1.1 has been extended into the demarc room and a fiber termination rack has been installed. No circuits built, as soon as they plug in the cards and configure whatever needs configuring my four DS3s will be available on the backside of that rack.

The demarc room is about 8' x 10' and will contain just the one rack. So naturally they mounted it hard into the corner with mere inches of clearance on the left and back sides, and several feet right and front. It is not possible to stand behind the rack and make the coax connections.

Hopefully they will extend the handoff into the 1.1 -- which is where I have my conduit to and which I have coaxes that will reach any point on the backboard IN THE 1.1. If they do not extend, I'll have to order longer coaxes. Unless one of the two little 2" pipes is going to my TE2.
