@Roger G Thank you for this background information! Yes, you’re right, I checked, Salt gave the order to Cablex to build the 5G antenna. As the owner in the perimeter, I received a copy of the order log 🙂

On FTTH expansion. First of all, I have the official expression of the Pol. Pfäffikon municipality used for Auslikon, so hamlet is correct. My guess would have been that you would need almost 3km of glass cables (and there are quite a few) from the feeder (obviously depending on where the drop location is defined). This is apparently the biggest bottleneck in the context of the effort for Swisscom. Afterwards in the village itself, the effort should be manageable… But this effort has to be tackled by SC at some point, at least when the PUS has to be shut down. At the latest in 2030 ;-). But it is interesting that other pipes, e.g. wastewater, then end up in Wetzikon;-D. They would have planned more pragmatically via CO in Unterwetzikon. No matter, my location here is still in the municipality of Pfäffikon.

Yes, I regret that the community treats the issue in a ‘neglectful’ manner. Let’s see how the ‘story’ continues here…

Anyway, thank you again for your answer.

LG,

Robby

@Roger G Does Auslikon have to wait until 2030? There are some construction sites for new properties in the construction zone, won’t these be connected directly with glass? In this context, you would also carry out the feeder migration for the settlement, right? It is unfortunate that no glass has been pulled ‘underground’ in the entire settlement ‘far and wide’. According to the cadastral plan only copper cables……

I’m currently thinking about ordering the 5G booster because I could at least ‘expand’ it to at least 400 Mbit here at my location from the current approx. 95 Mbit 😉 Now I see from the checker that SC ‘only’ max 190 Mbit is possible. There’s no big “Gump” to the top. It would be cool if there could be a follow-up to the Pfäffikon municipality’s connection network.

@Werner do you know something that I don’t know? 😇

And it is obvious that Auslikon stands between “Stüäl and Bänk”, nevertheless around 440.NE can be registered..and a DSLAM a.k.a. ‘external control center’ was built in 2011. After almost 14 years, this DSLAM could be dismantled and replaced with glass… Why not plan another feeder migration for this location in the next 2 years?

@Plereippeg66

Lucky you, the ZüriOberland is still in scope 🤩👍. But not with us, as our location would be connected to the Unterwetzikon headquarters 🙈

@Roger G Feels like a ‘copper oasis’….anyway Thanks and yes, it’s a shame, I assume it may be due to this unfortunate constellation of the glass ‘stretch’ from Hittnauerstr. 20, almost in the center of Pfäffikon to Auslikon, which is closer to Wetzikon… oh man 🙃

Last Friday at lunchtime I observed that (the network construction partner) Axians was on site (at the DSLAM) with 2 vans….. took recordings (photos), etc. I now assume that they took an inventory, as well as the Location / route to the individual. Properties? etc. analyzed. Unfortunately I couldn’t contact you for further information 😞 Nevertheless, maybe it’s a good omen, I hope so 🙂

Let’s see what comes out.

Cheerz

@Roger G

When analyzing the network plans (Swisscom - cadastral plan) via network information for my community of Pfäffikon, I noticed that we are the only region in our local area of ​​Auslikon without mCAN! I was amazed when other external locations of the community, even a location in Hermatswil far away from the community (also part of the political community), were equipped with mCAN. I can’t believe it, they’re even smaller than my town and get FTTS g.Fast. 😞 Somehow I can’t shake the thought that we’ve been left out here, almost ‘off the radar’. Have we simply been forgotten? 😉

Short update on possible construction plans from the municipality for my town here: looks rather bleak because there are no road renovations planned. Nevertheless, advance information will be communicated to all stakeholders (including communications companies such as Swisscom) if the road should be renovated. However, if you look at the street renovation on Schulhausstrasse last year, you knew about it, but didn’t take the opportunity to use synergies to lay glass pipes in the sewer pipes. That’s unfortunate then.

In this respect, I sensed a certain negative attitude, even though I had seen the network construction colleagues from ‘Axians’ at the DSLAM distributor (thought that it might be a sign of preparation for a possible expansion plan, which would then be discussed with the community) :/

A question spontaneously comes to mind, there are always complaints about insecurities regarding tight space conditions in the sewerage channels and DP. Isn’t an initial pipe analysis carried out by SC in the community before the network expansion project is started?

Cheerio,

Robby

@5018 I wouldn’t exactly say it’s pointless in my opinion, but respect your opinion. I am aware that the projects, among other things (the greatest weighting), are prioritized based on the risk, i.e. financial effort. It is simply special that a far(er) remote town/settlement on a hill above mine (the same community), which is closer to CO, was developed. There was probably a reason for it (including permits? etc). “It is what it is”, we just have to be patient here. Have a nice WE everyone.

Cheerio

No topic, I also think it’s great from you 😇👍 That’s why there are such platforms within the community to exchange topics and perhaps discuss them controversially. But you’re right, there are such “nonsense” local councilors who, IMHO, are not that keen on the dramatics and technology. But unfortunately you hear such a statement often. I don’t really care about modern infrastructure in the municipality (area), although it is part of the GR’s performance goal… that you have UPC or Sunrise via HFC is completely sufficient. Well, what can you say about that? I prefer competition on the infrastructure with dozens of different providers, not just wholesale providers😉. Anyway… life goes on 🙂

@Roger G Thank you very much for the useful and very informative background information. Exactly, as you said, it’s an unfortunate situation, but on the other hand we have VDSL, which is better than hanging on an overhead line or an ADSL Anschluss somewhere.

And regarding the property on which the PUS is located, I cannot, with the best will in the world, imagine that the property owner (possibly a farmer) will unilaterally terminate the ‘lucrative’ contract with Swisscom 😉

Unfortunately, the PUS was built about 100 m too high up as the crow flies. If it had been built further towards the lake, it might have been called into question with the revised nature conservation guidelines for Lake Pfäffikersee (stronger moor protection).

I thank you anyway. Patience is in order here, at least we were also “in focus” of the SC.

N.B.: Nice photo that you documented there; You have chosen a nice place for the PUS 😉

Nice WE,

Robby

@5018 As already written above, the commissioned network builder ‘Axians’ was on site and carried out a location analysis including photo documentation. In my opinion, that would have to come from there. I assume that the @Roger G also requested the material👀 regarding further planning and the PUS Lifecycle topic, and was allowed to post it publicly here (non-confidentially). 😇
