We standardized on SC/APC (SCA) for everything we can. Mostly because it is the defacto standard for GPON so it is really easy to get. The only caveat is for optics which are mostly UPC so we have SCA - SCU 4.8mm outdoor drop cables built for us for running from our fiber plant to rooftop radios where we use BiDi SCU SFPs
Josh, Got a source / link for that DLX field install kit? Just starting to add DLX to the mix doing our own mini MSTs to group smaller buildings together. Would be nice to have some in stock for flexability.
