A question for BS really. Is it possible for an aerial cable to contain both E side and D side pairs? Something like the attached crude drawing.

Hi Licq
Hmmm ?? I don't have a definitive answer, as some of these remote places may well have something fashioned along these lines ?? But, I have never, ever heard of such an animal ??
I think it would be a logistical nightmare with E-side cables being pressurised and all that ?? :shrug2:
-
Thanks BS, I was just wondering if it sometimes happened in rural areas. But yes, cable pressurisation would be a bit of a nightmare.
-
Are aerial E-side cables pressurised? I have, perhaps naively, always assumed that such cables are grease filled. :-\

I've never seen, or heard of E-side aerial cable, B*Cat ..... ???

Tiny, rural, exchanges that are just remote concentrators with a few hundred lines, some EO and some via PCPs.
In particular, I am thinking of EASTW . . .

If that's Weavers Exchange .... I'm pretty sure I painstakingly mapped his entire D-side route back to a PCP ?? Albeit literally around the corner from the Exch.
Was a few years ago, now.

No, the Weaving Shed is served by NSBFD (North Scotland, Broadford), whilst I am thinking of EASTW (East Anglia, Stetchworth).

Just had a quick perusal and Stetchworth appears to be served by PCP's ... with associated DSLAM's.
