Optical Fibre Splicing in Lysterfield

Lysterfield runs at about 3181 people per square kilometre, so most fibre work here is in buildings: risers, floor distributors and terminations into a comms room rather than long external runs. At approximately 144 metres, Lysterfield has blocks where trenching has to avoid established plantings.

Lysterfield sits about 32 kilometres out in Knox. Home offices in detached rooms are the usual driver. Lysterfield is shared by Knox and Yarra Ranges Shire, a paperwork detail only.

A job in Lysterfield usually sits alongside something we already have booked in Belgrave South or Ferntree Gully that week. Postcode 3156, about 2.1 square kilometres, 6681 residents at the 2021 census: that is the shape of Lysterfield inside Knox.

We are across Lysterfield along with Belgrave South, Ferntree Gully, Lysterfield South and Narre Warren East, on the same rates and the same certificate. Lysterfield sits roughly 7.7 kilometres south of Boronia, where we are based. That distance is why a call here is answered from a van that is already in the area rather than from a call centre.
