Does anyone have experience in running fiber optic cable with micro-trenching techniques in areas where there is no existing asphalt or concrete roadway, just packed earth and rock? Environmental limitations do not allow for constructing an aerial power pole alignment, or underground ductbank. The distance is about 10 kM.
My best guess is that you would want to use directional boring in that case. A small hole every couple hundred meters, horizontal bore and duct pullback between holes. No personal experience here other than watching it being done for new pulls into existing developments. No need for digging up yards/sidewalks/parking lots, just a bunch of potholes at the new junction box locations and a single horizontal bore down the property line from the street, intercepting each of the potholes.
