Network Deployment Service

Responsible for the physical installation, configuration, and testing of MDU network infrastructure. This includes installing DPUs, Remote Terminals, and End-Run splitters, running Cat6a and coax cabling, and ensuring proper grounding and signal performance across multi-dwelling unit properties.

Network Administration/Management, Ethernet Cable, Network Testing, Electrical Wiring, Ethernet, Building Design, Drilling, Hands-on experience with Cat6a shielded Ethernet cabling and RJ45 termination.

• Experience with RG6/RG11 coax cabling and working around other utilities (CATV).

• Knowledge of acceptable grounding practices and coax loss management.

• Ability to configure switches and remote terminals.

• Experience with point-to-point Line of Sight (LoS) and mm-Wave radio aiming/pathing.

• Proficiency in administering speed tests.

• Ability to generate building designs and splitter maps.

• Comfortable working on rooftops (pitched and flat).

• Safe drilling practices.

1. Required Tools & Materials

• All-in-One Stripping Tool.

• EXO Crimp Frame with EXO Die for ezEX-RJ45 connectors.

• ezEX48 CAT6A Shielded RJ45 External Ground connectors.

• External Ground Crimp Tool.

• Fluke LinkIQ Cable Network Tester.

• Cat6a F/UTP Outdoor Rated Cable.

• T-568B Pinout Standard compliance.

Physical Requirements

• Ability to work on rooftops and at heights.

• Ability to work outdoors in various weather conditions.

• Ability to lift and carry tools and materials as required for installation.

Install the Switch (DPU) indoors or outdoors, including the 95W power supply and AC outlet if none exists.

• Install the Remote Terminal (RT) on rooftops (pitched or flat) or via J-pole mount.

• Install and mount End-Run splitters inside or outside the building.

• Install DPU distribution coax, including 1:2 or 1:3 horizontal parent/mid-run splitters.

1. Cabling & Wiring

• Run Cat6a (F/UTP) outdoor-rated Ethernet cable from the DPU to the RT on the roof.

• Work with existing RG6/RG11 coax cabling and LU Coax (existing building cabling, not installed by us).

• Terminate Cat6a shielded Ethernet cabling with RJ45 connectors using T-568B pinout standards.

• Install and connect the Stand-alone Power over Ethernet (POE) injector to supply power to the RT.

1. Configuration & Testing

• Configure switches and remote terminals.

• Administer speed tests through internal and external sources.

• Perform point-to-point Line of Sight (LoS) checks.

• Aim and path mm-Wave radios.

• Manage coax loss (dB loss per 100 ft, dB loss through splitters).
