Corey does read this list. So he can assume that offer might be on the table?

Possibly straight out of the back of NID on the outside wall into the unit. We just use it for the fiber wall plate to the 844G. In MDUs we run 3MM RBR bend insensitive pre-terminated on one end and splice it in the wall plate. You can also get it terminated on both ends of course. It can be run pretty much like cat5. If part of the run is outside, get the version with UV protection. Wall plates are cheap and replacing a 1m patch cable is a whole lot easier then replacing a drop to a unit if you go straight to the ONT. We have fibermint build out our wall plates with a shutter adapter and a pigtail. Order ~1K at a time. Speaking of which it is time to drop another order. Lead times are a PITA due to COVID19 and the constant changing of tariff rules.

But I really like the little metal bullet end on the pre terminated Miniflex. Easy to push through a wall etc. From: Carl Peterson Sent: Thursday, August 13, 2020 11:34 AM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group Subject: Re: [AFMUG] CPE Install Costs.xlsx FS armored patch is different then clearfield pushable. FS has a 900um loose inside a metal spiral with a PVC jacket. CFD pushable has a 900um in gel inside a thick plastic jacket. You can't really push the FS with connectors on it, or at all really. The FS is much more flexible and doesn't kink like CFD pushable but you can't push it. I don't like CFD pushable outside of microduct. Too easy to mess up and there are better fibers for the application.

And for what it’s worth the cable still worked. It’s at my house so I’m not too worried about it. Hopefully our install crew uses a little more care. It’s relatively stiff but it’s not like the Clearfield or other brands of pushable fiber that have a very minimal diameter protected stub at the end that you then assemble the SC connector to after pushing it in. You can get the movable part of the SC connector to pop off but you still have the full square end of the SC to deal with - it won’t go through most microduct, but you can get it through the normal drill size you shove CAT-5 cable though.

These https://www.fs.com/c/armored-patch-cables-220 work fine for the inside wiring from the outdoor box to the wall plate or direct to CPE if you are not doing a inside jack. They are not UV rated so you have to make sure you don’t leave them exposed outdoor. You can pop the outer SC portion off the jumper if you want to pass through a smaller hole.
