I second this, Equinix slough may be worth a shot. Best regards,

If this isn't a sensitive optical requirement eg DWDM or other long haul then just try an SC/PC patch lead. It'll work there's just not a perfect mating occurring and the light will have a small air gap but its pretty low loss. It can cause damage (scratching) but its minor and again if its not DWDM won't be an issue..

As a result, I don't have a suitable patch cable with me. Any suggestions on where I could urgently get an SC/APC to LC patch cable (singlemode duplex) in or near Reading? Many thanks, Simon
