Fiber spans rarely fail, unless inadvertently cut.
If the fiber optic is cut, can it be spliced back into service like a
cut copper wire? Or does a whole new line have to be run?

Years ago, it took a specially equipped trailer with clean room grade
equipment to splice fiber. Now the tech can do it with a simple kit and

The answer is some, but I don't have specifics.

Verizon should be investing in hardware for VDSL instead of
