Thanks. I've used Transtector plug-in protectors with good success.

I was looking for something more in the line of "non-sacrificial"
equipment, though.

The cheapest multi-mode pre-terminated fiber I can find (with a pulling
eye) is about $500 for a 400-foot run. Then two media-converters add
another $150, or so.

I was hoping there was a "link in a box" arrangement for this very
purpose.

John, have you used the Transtectors for this purpose? If so, how do
they hold up to nearby cloud-to-ground or cloud-to-powerline strikes?
