We have done several that are similar to that scenario. My best advice would be to find a reputable local vendor or technician to do the install work. They will get the fiber installed correctly and up to standards. They will also test things thoroughly and probably document it well also. If you have special environmental concerns (dirty plant environment, temp extremes that might affect media converters, etc.), they will probably recognize the potential for problems and install the correct equipment (NEMA enclosures, etc.) to avoid those problems. You may have to fight a bit to justify this over a DIY install or a cheaper installer, but in my opinion, it's well worth it to have fiber installed the RIGHT way.

The most critical is the end points. We are looking to expand to an adjascent building, using Fiber or possibly wireless, where there will be RF devices attached to our Iseries Warehouse system and some PC's attached to the ISeries. Has anyone done such an expansion? -------------------------------------------------------- This message contains confidential information and is intended intended only for the individual named.
