Same here except we started with Mikrotik at the top to convert the fiber.
I soon switched them out since talking to Lewis and no worries at all.

Before we sold we went to a model with a pair of 14awg for power and
four fibers in one armored cable. We used a planet poe switch up top
and a single dc surge arrestor for the power. Worked well as far as I
know. I could try to find out what model we used. I probably still
have some lying about I would make a good deal on.

We are seeking feedback from people that are using fiber up the
tower instead of Cat5. Interested to know what equipment (power)
you are running at the base, and what equipment (switches,
routers, POE, Ethernet protection etc.) that you have at the top.
How is it working for you? Has having everything at the top
proved to be much more stable? It’s kinda scary to change from
our current way of doing it, but power surges are kicking are
butt, clobbering radios on the Ethernet side (mostly ePMP).
Looking forward to some good feedback.
Thanks!
