From what I heard from a friend who has his unifi installed, TM will charge for additional length of the fibre optic cable.
Anyway, I think if not too sure about the type of cable, better to let them install. No headache later is got problem.

Does this mean that if the unifi is pulled to the central box only and you had a tel phone point behind the TV, u can use unifi for that TV?

If i pre conceal an empty conduit, i spend less than 30 buck only on cable puller, still can use cable puller for other things and my wireman only charge few the conduit price, which is less than 20 buck.

And Unifi come with free installation. Still is much cheaper.

just ask my worker to do conceal conduit for this unifi, hack again after wall skim coat done doh.gif

You got few 90deg turn, did you have a cable puller put inside? else will be very hard to pull through the fiber.

I would like to ask:

I hav a new house (new development) and at the backyard, there is a MK-FOUR Box for telephone lines.
According to the developer, this new development area had been laid with fibre optics.
If in future, there is available of Unifi service, may I know whether the Unifi contractor will pull the fibre optics from the MK-FOUR box, or there will be constructing those new station at the backlanes? I tried to open the MK-FOUR box, and it seems does not have any fibre optics cable or output...

I m asking these question is tht I would like to install the conduit pipe for fibre optics (to the server room) during renovation..

Please, anyone with experience help...

Thank you

First you have to know how and where the external fiber cable enters the house. Usually it is from the back. The main fiber cable will typically go into a BTU (Broadband Termination Unit) and from there it goes into your house. Inside your house, you would have to run the internal fiber from your BTU to the location where you want to put your modem.
Unifi optical cabling can ONLY be done by TM appointed sub contractors. Your typical wire-man will not have the know how to do it. There are 2 ways you can do the internal cabling: Unifi promotion package, where they do free cabling for you, or you do it yourself, which will probably set you back about 1K+ depending on the length
There are pros and cons to both ways:
Doing it with the TM package usually means you are bound to have unsightly cables because it will not be concealed.

If you want to have it concealed you have to do it upfront using your own money during the wiring work phase of your renovations. This would mean coordinating the Unifi contractor's work with your own wire man. I've heard stories of wire men accidentally cutting the optical cable because they did not know the location it was laid

Hiding the cabling in your plaster ceiling is one option. There cannot be extreme angles in your cabling as optical fiber cannot be bent too much. Typically it would come inside some protective cabling.
