I am going to be moving into a new house soon and will be switching back to Uverse for internet. I know that the new house will get FTTP.
The builder did a Cat5e run from the side of the house to the living room. Then from the same box in the living room did a cat5e run to a bedroom upstairs that I will be using as an office. So the living room wallbox has two cat5e lines. Right now the ends of cat5e are not terminated with RJ45.
I am wondering if the Uverse installer will be able to terminate the existing cat5e runs with RJ45 jacks?
Will they have any problem doing that for the living room since it will have two cat5e cables in the same box and will the tech have a wall face plate for 2 RJ45 ports?
The exterior wall that has the cat5e from the builder is also the garage wall.
I am also wondering what things do i need to be aware of to provide power for the install of the ONT?
What are my options for how they can power the ONT?
I have read that the ONT will need to have something like a battery UPS (please correct me on the proper term). Will they be able to mount that on a garage wall?
I am planning on having service installed on May 8th. Will a prem tech doing everything for the install on that same date? or will a line tech come out before hand to run the fiber to the side of the house where the cat5e line is?
Any other details that I may want to know for a FTTP install please let me know
