My wife and I went to an open house today, that had fiber installed. I don't have any experience with fiber directly, but I do know what the ONT looks like. I'm just wondering about the set up in the house, and what the other items are. I know the ONT is on the right, I'm curious about the small box on the left, attached to the ONT. I'm assuming that is phone?I assume the yellow cable (not the fiber line) is cat5, and the white coming out is cat5 as well. It appears as though they've put the cat5 through the floor then back out of the floor with a minijack next to the phone jack. The house is not wired for networking other than this one port, fortunately it's easy to get under for running wiring. So my questions are, is this a typical set up? Is that a phone jack attached on the left?Thirdly and possibly most importantly, how much does it cost to have an ONT moved? This is not in an ideal spot unfortunately, it's liveable (I would run Cat6 from the ONT to a vented closet in one of the spare rooms and put a board there for the switch and router etc...)I guess my final question is to do with cost of having networking run into a 3 bedroom, single level house. I'd rather have it done professionally as it would be a do it once do it right kind of thing. I can upload general plans later with measurements etc... Thank you all for the help. cheers.
