Anyone worked with fiber before? I've never worked with it before, so I'm pretty unfamiliar with the equipment needed. I have a client that has a fiber run between two offices located pretty near each other (they are on the same property). The cable company just ran a fiber optic line, that's it. So now he needs to buy the equipment.
Don't ask why there is no method to the madness. This is just how they work. :) Anyway, is all fiber the same? What kind of equipment does he need? I know that the cable company will need to terminate each end of the fiber somehow. Next, I suppose we need some type of CSU/DSU on each end? What lights up the fiber? Basically, what kind of equipment is needed? Personal experience, links, articles, or whatever are appreciated.
