Supermoosie on Nostr: New* under water fibre optic cable joining up to the northern beaches being rolled ...
New* under water fibre optic cable joining up to the northern beaches being rolled out from the back of a boat.
Apparently for NBN.
A few weeks ago they used directional drilling to create a concrete encased conduit, out to where the boat is now sitting.
*There was an Optus fo cable to the northern beaches, but I think it got damaged with sand shifting around and beach erosion a number of years ago.
When we have surf carnivals here, we can be dragging anchors around past where they are laying the cable on the sea bead....
