Ok... here's the run-down from the Verizon guy who showed up. Still have to get in touch with engineering now to further my project.
The lines you see pictured hanging down over the entranceways are verizon's cabling. There is one 50-Pair BET at the south end of the building that has 2 25-pair cables ran from it to the 3 BET's at the north end of the building. From there it passes through the fourth Enclosure with the 5-pin lightning/surge arrestor's and then travels through 2 25-pair cables BACK to the single BET at the south end of the building.
Now, evidently at some point 3 more 25-pair cables were ran from the 3 BET's at the north end of the building to the lone BET terminal at the South End. Then inside this box it was all spliced and ran out of that box, back along the cable path, and into different parts of the building for Demarc.
That means in a BET designed for 50-pair of cable there is over 250 pair being terminated/spliced/crossed and otherwise molested.
The Cloud of wires below the 3 BET's at the north end is just the typical cross-connect garbage from box to box because the active pair wasn't in the correct box that had the pre-existing demarc extension.
So what I am getting is tomorrow (saturday) they are going to come back with the cabling crew to j-hook the wire up below the rain gutters every 4-feet and make it cleaner-looking. The guy who showed up said he wasn't properly equipped for the job.
They are also going to look at correcting the boxes so that covers will close and pull any unneccesary wire. This just means wire that's laying in there not connected to anything. I dont expect them to pull much, if anything.
Calling the engineer as we speak to see about doing something different with the demarc's and inside wiring. So it will be interesting to see how many ten's of thousands of dollars they want.
Atleast I can charge for not doing anything but making a few phone calls to verizon
