Kind of like the 5-1/4" floppies of yesteryear. If all the

Heh, "fiber demons."
A few months back I swapped a cable between an old Cisco X2 card and a
patch panel and the port wouldn't link up. Cleaned and checked
everything, ran the OTDR, tried another cable, nothing worked.
Then I put the old patch cable back in and it linked right up. Switched
Put the patch cable on the VFL, nothing showed up. Light came out the
other end, no spots along the cable unless I bent it tight. I'll just
mark it up to the fiber demons.

Yep I would figure out the failure mode for future reference, maybe end
