BSNL Bharat Fiber FTTH General Discussions

[SG_curiosity]

Thanks @abhishekarora . I really appreciate for your help.

1. So now bsnl FTTH department guys are also providing the small size white splice /junction box (like JioFiber's small splice box) and a new white fiber cable instead of previous old big junky Black splice Box (pic attached) and black round fiber cable?

2. Please click closer pics of this small white splice box and white fiber cable.

3. Please also click few wide angle pics which covers the longer length of fiber cable fixed on wall and how it is coming from outside to show how nicely the work of fixing the fiber cable on walls have done by bsnl guys.

Great share bro.

Very helpful.

How did they bring that thick white wire inside the home? I don't have any openings in home and current ADSL line is bent through the window and since its copper I can shut the window without issues as well. I think that won't be possible with FTTH. Do they drill the wall?

Ok, here are few more pics.
They drilled the wall above door

Thanks for your effort bro. Drilling a tiny hole in the wall is a good option. We can cover it later with something if we want. And they have even clipped it. Looks tidy.

BSNL FTTH guy called and said he would come today to check feasibility, but didn't come. BSNL office guys already told I can get FTTH now and gave me his number. I'm concerned what happens if there is a problem in the connection or if fiber is cut if service is like this.

Your LCO has done a neat and tidy job of drilling and wiring placement. Good stuff.

It is only done by BSNL no interference of any LCO

For this, you need to call them daily. It took around 2 months to get a connection installed at my Home

Two months.... Wow. Keep us informed once your bill generates on 4th bro.
You took directly from BSNL but have already paid 1900rs for the modem. You shouldn't get any rental charges from what I can see.

@abhishekarora
1. Is that fiber cable flat or round shape?
2. What is the cost of fiber cable or upto how much length is free ?
3. What other payments you had deposited other than ONT router?
4. Can you please share the pic of the last point (fiber distribution box) in your nearby area from where the bsnl fiber cable is pulled out directly to your house? Because i want to find bsnl's FTTH dp box in my nearby area but i dont know how it looks like. So if you can share it's pic than i will be helpful for me.

No, nothing is paid for ONT, it will be added in the first bill itself.
Paid only a one month rental or you can say security deposit by cheque
