Yellow is gas
Red is power
Blue is water
Pink is irrigation
Purple is reclaimed water
Orange is cable
👍 nice video those tools are mad upgraded now, but good
Thanks for the info
Green is sewer and white is where the work is gonna be done.
When I first read your video title I thought you were saying that it was "boring" but now I understand haha
I'll add drilling to the title lol
So that’s how they do that... good vid!
I figured you would enjoy this
What a coincidence, I am in Everett engineering fiber for Ziply.
Awesome! I love my Ziply Fiber service but I don't like renting the router for $10. Can they give me a discount for helping them promote their service lol?
@@Jay_Rule I don't know anything about the service, I am not even from this area. Give them a call and ask.
@@Jay_Rule They are rolling out tons of installations if you do this or know guys who do. 15K mdus for fiber that Frontier missed.
I would have thrown a few 3/4 inch conduits in there in case I ever needed to run more wires in the future.
I was wondering why they didn't use any sheath for protection. I didn't have any conduits on me lol.
How would you remove the cover to some cable that was buried? I see on that green box you lifted up there’s a bar that’s vertical which looks like a support for the cover. I do see a 11mm bolt on the outside of the cover on mine.
The cover can be removed by using a special tool.
@@Jay_Rule so I figured it out there’s a bolt on the outside but it acts like a key lock and not a bolt that’s removed thanks for the response
@@E85_STI Yes, I saw the tech guy loosen it with a tool in order to run a diagnosis with the internet speed.
I need to ask a question about running a fiber optic wire, I have to go from my driveway down the side of the main road, then cross over underneath of the road and down the side of the main road a good bit further, what would be the best way to do this
I'm sorry but I'm not a professional. I only documented the process for anybody wondering how fiber optic lines are installed.
You can rent a trenching machine but that wont get you under concrete. That will require digging up/cutting concrete. You can also use a horizontal boring machine. Do your research with both types of machines. This is a lot more involved process than most realize. If you are not familiar or licensed to run a horizontal boring machine I would suggest hiring out the work. This is a potentially dangerous project for an average homeowner to take on and is usually done by a highly trained crew. Follow all safety guidelines and state laws when digging.
That's some damn good internet speeds
Fastest for residential use I've ever seen.
There's a provider here that has similar speeds but it's $70 a month
Please tell me what will happen if this equipment hits a water pipe? Will the fibre damage? And will it csuse an under ground leak?
That is why they have the utilities company come out and mark the lines on the ground before they come to dig.
Thanks for the reply
How much does it cost? i needed my electrical conduit to br upgraded
The digging was included in the installation. I didn't have to pay a dime but you have to sign up for a year of service I believe. Call them to confirm.
Crazy how don’t use a conduit to cover that cable
True, probably a cost reduction. I'm hoping the cables will last a long time.
Thats a direct burial cable, is design for that purpose
Guys where can I find those oilers? I can’t find them anywhere
Are you referring to the boring tool or the workers?
I start general labor for a boring company next week any tips I don’t have any boring experience
Sorry bro, I can't help you there as I was the one recording lol. I suggest going on TH-cam to understand the boring process.
@@Jay_Rule it’s all good bro it took a couple days but I understand majority of it now
Gawd damn, 2ft for a service line?? Most of the time these lines buried about 3-4 inches underground 😂😂😂
Only the newer homes after 2006 have the fiber optics line ready.
What Calix shelf is being used? Gpon? Calix E7?
I'm not too familiar with the terminology. Are you referring to Ziply Fiber's network interface? I have no idea what they would use.
hey i know this comment is pretty old, but Ziply Fiber uses different types of light, GPON and XPON. I believe the Calix ONT have their own OLTs and use a unique variation of GPON but im not certain, we dont install that much anymore anyways.
I’d be pissed off !! if some weirdo with no shoes is filming me while I work!
I asked them and they were ok with it
Bury reconnect is what that is!!!
Thanks for the info 👍
So what speed plan you get?
1Gbps $60/mo
@@Jay_Rule Where is that cheap?.
So You Have The Cable Internet And Phone Right Jay Rule
Are you referring to before? I had cable internet with Comcast Cable and phone with Verizon. I switched from Comcast to Ziply Fiber but my phone service is still with Verizon.
Why would you not run the drop in a high vis micro conduit? Doesn't appear to be burial line and lacks a traceable line with no way to locate in the future. The info as to the boring process is good, but that fiber drop WILL get hit due to lack of protection and inability to locate.
IDK, ask the contractor boring company. I had the same concern too.
I wonder if you have to pay for this service?
That is a good question and the answer is no. Digging is covered by Ziply Fiber because I'm using their service.
Man if you bore under anything should always pull in duct.
I don't understand what you mean. Are you saying they should install a duct for the line to go through? I doubt they will take the time and add more to their cost because the boring was covered by Ziply Fiber.
@@Jay_Rule here in Canada they install a steel box in your front yard
Jesús love you men
Thanks bro, I know
jesus is really for the demonic lieng loser devil sicko people got deceived by evil !!!
Man 1 year and couple months working with missile they make money but nothing like directional drills
Working with missiles???
@@Jay_Rule that’s what that tool is called missile. And directional drilling is a big machine.
Shit I'm making 4k/wk rite now this missile was by far the best 5k I've spent!
Ziply Fiber Cable Is Orange Red Is Power Yellow Is Gas Blue Is Water Pink Is Irrigation Purple Is Reclaimed Water
Thanks for the tips. Good to know.
He’s like Ricky Bobby, he doesn’t know what to do with his hands.
They were cool to let me take pics and record. If they didn't, this video wouldn't exist lol
Did he awriously say the things he said I. The beginning of the video? He's not in charge in anything I hope...
I was trying my best to describe the utility lines.
@Jay Rule *_ I live in a 3rd World country (South Africa) and our Fibre installations are 1000 times better than yours!! Our Fiber cables are all inserted into PVC conduit embeded 600mm (2ft) underground! All above ground is trunked. You on the other hand just need an overzealous gardener that digs a hole for a shrub and *BANG* there goes the whole fibre install... that's why ours are protected! _*

Or you can be smart and get a utility locate for free by calling 811 which works anywhere in the US
Almost 1Gbps , that's good speed man, you have any work in this field please contact on same mail. Ping Google
Nope. I'm just a Ziply Fiber customer
