Ah, so you probably really do need the bandwidth.

If the run is straight conduit, it is much easier to pull
in a fiber line. Corners make long pulls tough.

OP here...

Is pulling fiber materially different from pulling other
forms of cable such as the 10-Base-2 we now have?

Thanks,

It's easier to break.


Also, if you check, you'll find it is spelled "fibre", not "fiber".

Howdy,

Regarding the breakage issue, I think we would be fine. The
underground conduit was properly designed for the purpose
and has only smooth curves.

Regarding the spelling:

I am US based, and on this side of the pond it is
"fiber." 'Sorry for any confusion.

All the best,

Only if you're not in the U.S. ;-)

Seems that the Nat'l Institute of Standards and Technology, a part of
the U.S. Gov't, uses the term fiber extensively.
