So you feel comfortable enough with the design that when someone opens the box for an install or other service, that the contamination, disruption of existing service is minimized? That seemed to be at the heart of what MST or Opti-Tap type solutions are solving.

You get a weather proof door for the installer to open up and insert his drop cable, and he just plugs it in with an SC-APC connector (or whatever connector you tell them to put in it). There's a separate door you open to access splice trays and buffer tubes. No special hardened connectors. I've seen Opti-Tap, but I didn't look at it seriously.....I guess I have a bias against weird connectors. On 3/25/2019 8:05 PM, Mike Hammett wrote: Who all makes MST-style systems? Who all makes interoperable ones? I understand many use OptiTap, so I'd assume everyone using OptiTap is interchangable. What do I need to know about MST-style systems? ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
