I had been thinking in terms of a entry every 2-4 homes (drop cables from entry directly to house on each side). Seems excessive.
It does seem more managable if it's ~ 8 drops per entry. The drop cable may run alongside the feeder cable for X feet until it splits off to go to the home? -Rob On Thu, Jun 16, 2016 at 9:30 AM, Chuck McCown <ch...@wbmfg.com> wrote: > Hours.
