Ok, I see that the Superior Essex is available in 2 fiber up to 12 fiber. So I am guessing it would be best to just buy the two fiber and run one to each backhaul. Thoughts? Anyone else doing this? I would guess that without gel would be preferred. I do not miss the days of gravity bringing all the gel down into my rack.....
