Methods and devices for the installation of a fiber optic cable to a house
or other building structure are provided. The method may include
identifying a preferred location of a customer through an indication left
by the customer either on the interior side or exterior side of a wall,
forming a through opening in the wall near or at the preferred location,
and installing the in-wall termination device in the opening. The in-wall
termination device may include a wall plate for attaching to an interior
surface of the wall. The wall plate includes one or more connectors for
receiving ends of cables extending from the exterior and connecting those
cables to other cables extending through the interior of the building
structure. The method may allow for the installation of the cable without
requiring the presence of the customer or requiring access to the
interior of the building structure.
