Is there a minimum length for a single mode fiber patch cable?
I have been using 1 meter cables and they are almost always too long, I'm talking about going between routers and switches in a rack, stuff like that. I see that FS sells 0.5 meter cables, but I saw somewhere like maybe on Reddit someone claiming there was a minimum length. Given SM fiber and LR optics, I don't see how 0.5 or 1.0 meter would be different they are both essentially zero length. Probably there's some kind of cable tray or cable management solution I could be using but I've never liked such things.
