A direct strike? Don't think there's anything that will really protect
against that.

fiber-related facebook group.
So even though you might have fiber coming in, remember that both the

lightning strike jump between devices. So the OP of this thread is right
in wanting to protect both the network cables and power cables.
PS. I don't have more details about this specific case.
