SaskTel servicing guidelines

for

existing Multi-Dwelling

Units

3. Property Owner Responsibilities

These guidelines are generic and the type, quantities, and location of network components will

vary based on the layout of the MDU complex. All components will be placed in locations

mutually agreed upon by SaskTel and the MDU owner/developer.

The purpose of these guidelines is to assist owners and builders by informing them of the

considerations of:

• provisioning interior and exterior pathways and entries,

• providing adequate spaces for the installation of equipment, and

• the installation of types of fibre optic cabling inside the premise.

Please refer to the special note at the beginning of Section 1 on page 4.

3.1. Service Entrances into Buildings

In many MDU properties being served by traditional copper cabling, all incoming services

terminate at a single location at the property, and are distributed from there to the various

buildings and units. This location is usually a Telecommunications Room or other central

location.

Although this distribution architecture is necessary for most copper distribution systems, it is not

required for a fibre distribution design. The Passive Optical Network does not contain any

exposed electrical conductors that present the lightning and fire hazards associated with copper

and therefore do not require the extensive shock and voltage isolation with fire protection typical

of traditional Main Telecommunication Rooms.

The Fibre Distribution Terminals (FDT) and Fibre Distribution Hubs (FDH) are relatively small

cabinets that contain only optical components and so do not need A/C power access or

conditioned rooms (although they do need to be accessible to SaskTel, so a safe and secure

working environment is required).

If an MDU property will be served by traditional copper services as well as SaskTel Fibre Optic

Network services, the FDT and FDH cabinets may be co‐located with the copper facilities in the

facility entrance location. Also, if copper facilities from SaskTel are required along with fibre

services, they may be terminated at the entry location.

A service entrance pathway shall be provided. The basic methods for provisioning are

underground, buried, aerial pathways, and tunnels.

In determining the total number of pathways required, the MDU owner should consider the

following needs:

a) type and use of building,

b) growth,
