@robbieB You’re not completely alone in the area. On the map you can see that in the entire area, including the eastern part of Kempten, the connections are still connected to Outdoor PUS.
For whatever reason, no mCAN was installed. The only way I can explain it is that the FTTS expansion in favor of FTTH was no longer planned there. And then the WEKO story happened and now you’re at the back again because feeders across Switzerland have to be added first.
The photos of the PUS were taken because it will then be removed with FTTH, but the copper cables that may still be necessary are spliced into a sleeve in the shaft in front of the PUS. So only the possible construction measures were pre-recorded, as we will dismantle all PUS.
A little tip: The whole thing could be sped up if the property owner where the PUS is on it terminates the rental agreement. Or better yet, plan a building or something there so that the PUS would have to go away as soon as possible. A declaration that this is a nature conservation issue could also help. Since we will no longer be building a new PUS, FTTH would have to be planned there asap.
