Lel fiber optic you think so easy meh?

Need to splice some more

I think you are correct. From the post, it is black cable with two fiber optic strands internally. The black one from post has wire that it can be pulled. After that it goes to optic cable termination box inside house. From this box it is fiber optic "patch" cable also that goes to the BTU

black wire is fiber optic cable lo, you cant fix this and not your responsibility also. call tm fix.

what people buy in retail shops are LAN cables, blue in color usually but usually wrapped in plastic coating just

if it's outside to the TM box (outside), it's TM matter.
u complain, they must fix for free, this is t heir infra.

however, from the box to your modem, u bear the cost.
if u ask TM people com & do, it's expensive.
u can get 3rd party in which u hav 2 options.
1) get the fiber cable & replace the whole cable, meaning u hav to relay the internal fiber wiring.
2) cut & patch the part that is broken. degration is expected, but this 1 depends on quality of work.

TM gonna charge u a bomb.
u can get the fiber cable outside also. although not common, but can find.

I have spare. I sell u half of whatever TM charges u. Haha.

LOL HAHAHA

you can buy fibre optics cable but certainly not from diy. TM charge me 5k to pull until inside my house. So i ask them to pull until guard house. Then i hire 3rd party pull until indoor.

The question is the damage is on which after the TM box or before?

The difference between fibre optics and cat5e cable is very obvious.

fibre optics only 1 thin line

Yes you can buy them. And like u said, definately not at mr diy. and definately not in some plastic bag.

You cant splice fiber cable like normal copper cable.


Can buy in plastic bag. Those usually just short 1 or 2 meter fiber cable that already have the connector at both end. Meant for indoor junction box to the modem.

Call TM...aku punya kena potong dengan org mesin rumput kt luar...tm datang repair balik...takde chrge pon..call je instead of asking here

Apparently a lot of ppl here post nonsense. Just call TM they will find out the problem and fix it for u. If it involve charges which I highly doubt they will inform u before they do.

Just call TM and ask. Internet is full of NBTD ppl who try to act smart giving out advice left n right without factual check. TS u should beware

Problem fixed a few days ago, by those hopeless TM. It looks like they fitted a fiber optic bridge to fix the damage.

Had to call those clowns five times to get things going and each time, they keep on saying they are checking on their side. WTF !!!

You left out the most important part. Was it FOC?

The TM contractor did not charge me anything, however, I've yet to receive my bill, not sure if I would be charged then.

TOPKEK, many talks here about fiber optic like its a lan cable lols and MR DIY? Seriously?

That's a good sign.

Wait for the bill and tell us if it is
