But what do they mean when they say the wires aren't long enough to pull into the building ? then thru the splitter they still need to pull the wire into the building right ? Weird...
There were obstacles between the FTTH box and the building unit outside. So thats why they pull it long enough and place their FTB there.

I did talk to them just now during install, they told me they pull the Black cable into the Fiber Termination Box then change to white cable because the Black cable is for outdoor use and cannot bend much, while the white cable is slightly less sensitive when you bend it, so it is more suitable for indoor use when u pull thru corner and conceal it in the plastic wire casing. What i didn't know was the 'Black' outdoor cable can be pulled straight into the FiberWall Socket directly without using the white cable. Btw, when u mention that you have the 'Black' outdoor cable pull straight into the Fiberhome Modem, you mean u still go thru the FiberWall Splitter like rizvanrp pic right ?
The thin fiber cable from the FTTH box is shielded inside another thick cable. In the case for BIZ5, it was orange colour and cannot bend much like you said. This is to protect the fiber cable inside ofcourse.
No FiberWall Spliter was used in my home setup..so literally they pull from FTTH box straight into fiber modem. No drilling was required as well as they slip it through one of the aircon pipe holes that had enough space put the fiber cable through. From this point they conceal it with plastic wire case all the way to where my fiber modem is.
