I have the Google fiber service and am placing a large, 16ft2 concrete (4' x 4' x 4') base for a self-supporting tower. As is my luck, the place on the side of my house that I can place said tower, and base, has the fiber cable running on one side, about 6" into the area and about 6" deep.
Thoughts/Options:
rerun the cable.. Literally have someone come out and add line or help rerun the cable to go around the base.
Use some sort of cable wrap and just pour around the cable - the wrap will protect the cable perhaps?
Take some sort of PVC conduit, use a saw to rip a kerf along the length, feed the cable into it, wrap the kerf so as to prevent concrete/water, cover the ends outside of the area and then pour around the conduit as though it was meant to be there in the first place.
