The multi core cable is for IRS systems and colour coded for the different bands. Only used it a few times due to the expense and weight of the cable drum.It also includes a earth for the earth bonding can save on labour time tho.

Of course the fibre feed wins both in performance and cost.Labour will be greatly reduced as well.Real time saved will be on 9-13-17 wire systems and the poor engineer wont have to haul loads of cable drums around always a problem when the lift is broke lol

if you see a cable installer around stop and ask them they have compression f types for rg59 they work on wf65 used them myself for sky+ installes. Also still have some of there rg11 conxs which fit on wf165 cable i use for long feed runs the compression tool i use does wf63/100/125 and 165 all...

That coax is configured side by side and is only RG59 not RG6 type so has a large loss. Its ok to use for short distances but to be honest you wud be best off using two runs of rg6 CT100 WF100 etc as the loss is loads less. To secure the cable use flat clips like used for electricial cable...

no earth bond of the headend is needed but yes will still be needed on the multiswitches as this is still copper property to property. Think we are still ages away on having a complete fibre system dont think sk....y will be investing in fibre stbs yet due to expense of design etc. Cost of fibre...

ive seen the system work a few months ago and yes it works well.You will still have the same problems tho as it converts the feed back into coax. The idea isnt new really been around for years.Think about it cable run a fibre back bone around the uk sending TV teleco and broadband then convert...

How do you find the rover st4. When I was using them I found them very slow to take readings also slow to catch up when aligning satellites. I much prefer my promax explorer.Its faster and found it as accurate as the rover when side by side.

You can download a trial of the software from _www.roverinstruments.com it will allow you to use it for 30 days. take it you working for avonline you could ask a manager if they can get you a pasword for the software
