We have been using the FS armored jumpers. Cheap and work well.
Outer jacket is supposed to be UV resistant but we usually try to get
that in the house from the enclosure rather than having it in the sun.

You can order them in any length you like.

This looks nice enough, I just would prefer to have my splice
outdoors for testing/troubleshooting purposes.
Also, FWIW, I'm using the RB260GS units in outdoor boxes and have had
very few failures.

I think to terminate the drop cable you'd have to build up your

What I've been doing is putting a cheap splice box inside the house
and splicing the drop to a patch cord. I'm open to better ideas.
I have wavered on putting an ONT outdoors. I'd be limited to units
that can survive the cold as opposed to a cheap switch or router.

Flat drop termination for $15? That could be useful, any part
numbers?
I'd probably just run it through the wall and mount the ONT to a
floor joist when possible.

Not only that, you can field terminate the drop with a unicam for
about $15
So no $45 jumper.

I just hate indoor ONTs. People do not respect the fiber. It
gets cut and mangled etc.
I guess if you are nailing the ONT on the wall somewhere, but if
it is similar to a modem on someone’s desk you are asking for
trouble.

Clearfield flexible fieldshield patch cables with removable end.
Run from outside splice box to inside ont. Almost always use the
25 footers. Expensive. $45. I have yet found a better solution
that doesn’t involve more labor.

Subject: [AFMUG] Indoor ONT fiber
Currently I just run a flat drop fiber to an enclosure on the side
of the building, then cat5 inside.
Those of you doing indoor ONTs, what are you using for fiber from
the outdoor splice closure to the ONT? It would need to be UV
rated and probably armored since I would prefer to not have to run
conduit from the splice closure through the exterior wall.
Thanks.
Jason
