They should have been placed underground, EVERYWHERE in Sydney.

See above.

(Considering the fact that the NBN proposes fibre on poles as well.)

Then that would be dumb too, considering most of Sydney has
underground 'phone lines.

Are you aware that in too many cases the conduit that contains the
phone and internet cable/foxtel is too small to have any thing else
forced through it?

Thats a lie. And they arent 'forced through' either.
Well Roddles, I stood and watched the Foxtel/Bigpond blokes "threading"
the cable from the Telstra pit next door (It had the 4 "taps" for four of
the houses in my street).to my Telstra pit.
It jammed 3/4 of the way to the pit that fed the phone wires into my
house.
They gave up that day and laid the cable from the "Tap pit" across my
front lawn and onto the connection box that fed the internal access cables
through my house.
They returned the next day, and dug s couple of large holes into the
footpath and located where the cable that they had jammed.
They then smashed through the conduit and hooked another cable to the
jammed end and pulled a new cable into my access pit
Repair consisted of placing broken bits of conduit on top of the conduit
holes, sealing with tape and filling the holes back in.

Large snip

It involves 55 per cent of the 10 million premises to be cabled being
connected above ground, and 45 per cent through underground ducting.

Conroy is not in the least concerned that there will be resistance to this
from homeowners, who already stare at the tangled aerial cable
infrastructure that is the legacy of the Keating government's involvement
in the pay-television rollout war between Telstra and Optus.

In an attempt to comfort those residents in the 5.5 million premises to be
connected by above-ground fibre cables, Conroy said these would be thinner
and strung higher than existing pay-TV power pole cabling.

"Just more than a year ago Finance Minister Lindsay Tanner was
enthusiastically promoting the role mobile services were playing in
driving productivity across the economy.

Holding his mobile phone out to an audience at the National Press Club in
Canberra, he said people would look back in 50 years and "call this period
of human existence the era of the mobile phone".

"The internet and the mobile phone are becoming the same thing," he added.

But the social engineering in Conroy's vision for a brave new world would
encourage a more sedentary population dependent on services supplied
through the umbilical cord of his broadband cable, rather than following
the trend towards mobility of communication services.
The first 3rd of my street is above ground, then they got it right. So will
be interesting to see if they try to swing it from very widely spaced light
poles.
New estate round the corner is all below ground. They appear to have closer
together lights than we do.
As we are near Toowoomba and they are in the area, am I allowed to use my
large step ladder and be a vandal???????

But not for the reason he was pig ignorantly lying about that would require
the copper to be permanently ripped out so the NBN is possible.

The plastic pipe used these days for residential
purposes is 20mm diameter ( approx ). Previous
pipes used were even smaller.

The diameter of a FTTH lead-in cable ( more
accurately, the head/plug of the cable ) is about
20mm, I gather.

Not much room there for overbuilding another
network, it seems, unless you dig in more
conduit to every house.

Even the distribution network ( street pit 'n' pipe )
would have to be majorly upgraded to allow
another network to co-exist, IMO, particularly if
there's co-axial cable present as well.

We've seen two styles of rollout so far. One is
a separate network and the other, in a couple
of places, an entire replacement i.e copper to
FTTH.

There's yet to be a network overbuild
attempted....

The ACCC wont allow them to rip out the copper network, you watch.

Hard to believe, I know.
http://www.telstra.com.au/smartcommunity/assets/leadintrenching_0609.pdf
The last page has a conduit capacity guide. You
can only have a FTTH cable in a 20mm (P20) pipe.

Not much room there for overbuilding another
network, it seems, unless you dig in more conduit
to every house.

Aerial? Wouldn't be acceptable in a lot of places,
particularly with everything else located
underground.

Even the distribution network ( street pit 'n' pipe )
would have to be majorly upgraded to allow
another network to co-exist, IMO, particularly if
there's co-axial cable present as well.

The ACCC wont allow them to rip out the copper network, you watch.
I'm just wondering how it's going to be done.
With an underground shared system you could
possibly drag out the copper lead-in cable and
haul the FTTH cable in when that was required,
perhaps. And then haul that out when the next
tennant wanted to be on the copper network.

We've seen two styles of rollout so far. One is
a separate network and the other, in a couple
of places, an entire replacement i.e copper to
FTTH.

The ACCC wont allow them to rip out the copper network, you watch.
It's happening right now in a few places.

Not using existing Telstra pit and pipe, though.
