Fiber vs Copper: Pulling Cable in a Rental Apartment
from My Weird Prompts
Daniel's in a rental apartment with fiber to the ONT in the living room, but his workstation needs to be in another room. There's existing conduit with coax, and an electrician suggested a loopback route through the communications cabinet. Should he pull fiber or Ethernet through the wall? We break down bend radius physics, termination costs, tensile load limits, and why the "future-proofing" argument falls apart in a rental. Plus: why copper's analog failure modes beat fiber's digital darkness for home users. Episode #232880 — open it directly at myweirdprompts.com/232880
