As far as I know most use cables cut to length and terminated at the factory for in-building runs (though it is certainly possible to do it in the field). > The end of the fiber must be perfectly flush with the connector edge, > lest you have an air gap between faces, which causes serious loss at > the junction. I believe that most connector systems use a spring to push the fiber ends together. Otherwise temperature changes could create a gap. In any case while in-building fiber may be becoming common in large organizations it is still rare in small ones. -- John Hasler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
