Yeah, I don't really see a good reason to not just use a surge suppressor. Cheap-rate Ubiquiti or Mimosa suppressors can be had for ~$10... and you obviously aren't going to care much about the quality of the actual surge suppression in this case anyway.

    I guess both indoor and outdoor?  Bonding for R56 compliance and also
    for maybe getting RF noise to ground without going through our switch.

    I suppose indoor we can hack it, and outdoor might as well use the
    surge
    suppressor.  I'd imagine the housing and glands and such is more
    money
    than the PCB so there's nothing gained by paring it down.
