    Sorry for the delay MackMack,
    I'm afraid we have no further information on this at the minute.

    4 months on from when the efibre cabinet has been installed and still no sign of a going live date. The open eir map still says "Spring/Summer 2016" even though Spring is gone.

    Is there any chance of an update other than the usual "What's on the map is all we can give" line?

    Hi MackMack,


    Thanks for getting in touch.
    I've checked our current efibre roll-out plan and I'm afraid I have no further updates on the Rushbrooke exchange at the minute.
    I'm sorry I could not offer you better news :(

    The OpenEir map got updated today. This Cab is now gone back to Autumn 2016, which will probably be Autumn 2020 by the time it's actually turned on.

    Cabinet has only been installed for 6 months at this stage.

    Any update on when this cab is going live?
    It's been installed 8 months at this stage. Only 20ish cabinets left to go live in Cork and of course one of the last has about 400 houses connected to it.

    Well, the map has been updated again and now this cab has gone from Autumn 2016 to Autumn/Winter 2016.

    Tell KN to not bother finishing this one at all. FTTH will be here before this cabinet is done.

    Another update for this cabinet on the map. It's now been pushed back from Autumn/Winter to Winter.

    Any chance that Eir can give us some sort of idea what year this cab will be enabled? We'd settle for normal uncongested broadband at this stage instead of being stuck on 1meg first gen rubbish.

    Will this cab be enabled for efibre at all before the NBP forces it?
    Have OpenEir moved all their installation teams off eFibre and onto the FTTH rollout leaving the unfinished cabinets up s*** creek?

    It's been in the completion stage since January. The fibre core and elec have been at it for months already. If it's true that the cab is to small for the amount of equipment needed to serve the 400 houses to be connected to it then that shows complete incompetence by whoever planned the cabinet. 
    As B says, people are going over to Imagine LTE for something a bit faster than the 1meg lines ye're currently serving the estate. And seeing as Imagine have an 18 month contract that's 18 months ye won't be getting any of these people, at which stage Siro will be up and running and they'll just switch over to them.

    But thanks for at least not giving me a cut & paste answer that normally comes out in this thread.
