On top of that, one basic principle of telecommunications: No matter how much diversity and path redundancy, tons of concrete or titanium sealed fiber vaults you have, in the data exchange between points A and B there will be always two single points of failure: A and B. IMHO, this thread is getting way off topic, boring and useless. Fiber cut is over, there will be many more, move on ... Cheers Jorge
