* The ONT is installed inside the customer's premises by CityFibre and converts the fibre connection from the outside world to an Ethernet RJ45 port which you plug your router into with a CAT6 cable.

* The customer router should be configured to use VLAN id 911, and PPPoE.

* The ONT requires power, and a UPS is recommended, see our [[VoIP_Power]] page for suggestions.

* For help with router configuration for CityFibre connections, please see: [[General_Router_Settings#CityFibre_FTTP|General Router Settings page]]

* The ONT is a 'Calix 801G GigaPoint v2' device and measures 10.16x2.07x3.25cm (WxHxD).

=Outdoor Junction box=

[[File:CF-BT-Outside-spice-boxes.jpg|thumb|alt=CityFibre and Openreach outdoor Junction box|Outdoor Junction Box]]

CityFibre will usually install a junction box on the outside of the property. This connects up the fibre from the street to the fibre that goes inside the property.

This is a passive device, doesn't require power, and is just used to connect the two fibres together. The photo shows both a Brown CityFibre unit and a Grey Openreach unit.
