Feech Posted December 11, 2012 Author Share Posted December 11, 2012 So I finally caught someone at a site I was hawking for the last few weeks. It wasn't Ericsson but it was the contractor for the backhaul. Fiberlight was the name of the company. Told me he has 32 sites that they are contracted for and 28 of them are done also said that Brighthouse is the other provider. He said that the difference between them and Brighthouse is that they build right into the site as opposed to what they do which is have Sprint build out to the demarcation. Said that they also in the case of the 28 they have done they are waiting for Sprint to provide what they need. I hate that I have about 10 more questions I just thought of.

Feech Posted December 11, 2012 Author Share Posted December 11, 2012 Found another tower today too. It fits nicely along the path of the others I have found. It will be a pretty contiguous area when they light it up Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feech Posted December 11, 2012 Author Share Posted December 11, 2012 You guys that are sponsors. If you look at Pinellas county and the in Progress towers specifically. The tower I saw today is damn near smack in the middle of the other towers. This will be a monster area when it lights up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thtguyuknw Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 that's the truth, I would pay whatever to get FIOS in this area.. Sorry I am going off topic, but I am canceling my FIOS, I am at my 2 year anniversary, they want me to sign a 2yr deal and give me $20/mo discount. so it would be $125 still I am signing up under my wife's name because that is the only way I can the good deal. My wife as a new customer gets $79.99/mo/2yrs and a $300 gift card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bill3345 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Hey guys, I've never posted before but I've been keeping up with this thread for a while now. I live in St.Petersburg and work for the water department. So I go all over the city every day. From the bayway up to gandy. I just wanted too let yall know I'll be keeping an eye on my phone looking for LTE. If I do come across any I'll fire up sensory and post asap. I'll also post any work I see being done. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuX Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) I Have noticed solid speeds on the beach again on the 3g side wonder what kinda backhaul they have Edited December 12, 2012 by TuX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thtguyuknw Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I believe most non NV sites are running T-3s (44 Mbps) which consists of 28 T1s. If that isn't available the will bundle T-1s (1.5Mbps). NV puts OC3 (155 Mbps)or Microwave in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
