I have moved into a new home and last week a technician came to install the "drop".
I have seen today that a fiber cable has been ran to my house and it ends outside (there's a box where PG&E is for example). (EDIT: I did not see a transition box yet)
Since I have not even moved in yet, I do not know where the best location for my router (and later "computer room/closet") will be. But probably I'd prefer to have sufficient fiber that can be routed in the crawl space to any location. I definitely do not want to have the ONT at some random location and use a CAT5 cable to get where I want to.
On Sunday, I have planned my installation (where the ONT will be installed).
What shall I do to have most flexibility for the transition box & ONT location?
EDIT: I just realized there is a "Transition box" as well. Is this fully passive? Can it be located inside as well (for example, in crawl space)

- Where will the transition box & ONT be installed,
- how will this be decided and
- which options do I have to change their location afterwards?
