Hi, just wondering as I am going to commence renovations with my house after MCO

I need to core a 8" hole on my back wall, a spot somewhat near to my fiber termination box, I worry if the workers are not careful they may accidentally sever the fiber cable inside, if that happens, what's the typical cost to hire a technician to come and repair it?

TIA

Using unifi,

TIME

or

Ytl fibre optic

Unifi, landed terrace house.

your exact location..

some fibre come from pole / TM tiang from above and link to the landed house

i got notice, a ISP, do their fibre optic cable following the drain / longkang lining

Fibre optic cable, are being glue to the wall skirting

almost same like astro cable

maybe, you can call up 1515, and check with their Cust service and ask them in detail..

Eco Majestic semenyih... Actually I know the fiber cable is inside plastic conduit (white pipe)

About 100 plus. TM contractor will do it.

will need to replace the entire fiber cable, cant just "join"

about 100-200 for the connection, only to ground floor, if you need it to be 2nd floor, through roof, additional of 300 even its simple enough.

If wanna do during MCO also they won't come, so pick your timing correctly.

I kena 3 months without Maxis home broadband.
Instead, they give me a dongle with slow internet.
I dunno about unifi.

This, neighbour didn't call TM rather their contractor to reconnect after his reno

If tm staff free. Just the visit fee rm50.

If kontraktor, usually higher. Not sure but the staff say need to pay more. My fiber before got mouse@rat chew

Boleh sambung fiber... ada alat dia..

you cant join a broken patch cable.
pigtail you can still join but unlikely pigtail will even enter your property.

you can disconnect the fiber connector inside the termination box to make the clearance .

just unplug it out before worker commence work.

About 100 to 200 ringgit. Optical fusion splicing is a very routine job. But if that were the case just get TM to send a fiber tech out.

ask them drill smaller hole to ensure noting in the way first

i've got contracts do this multiple times for work purpose

why cause potential damage & loss of time (for client) when can spend a small amount of time to be cautious

you an ask any contract with fiber equipments. same if you go to TM, they will end their contractor.

can rejoin the broken fiber. You just need the tools.

RM 450/lot I charged

It cannot be more expensive than installation fee.

How much? 200? . I have no idea now.

Can confirm, can join, tm fella came with a device, the didnt terminate the end of the cable, they had a pre-terminated cable and joined it to the cable which they pulled in. How much, x tau la.
