The plan was to have them install a 4' PVC pipe from building to building with 3-4 Quasite boxes along the way.
Pull a fiber interduct, a 50-pair PVC Cat3 (never passes through plenums, even inside the building), a shielded audio cable now, and a heavy pull tape for future.
Then have FIS make me up a custom MM distribution 6-cond 62.5 fiber with a pull eye, all pre-terminated, to pull through the interduct.
Never even considered direct burial cable to be honest. It would be a 'one time' deal. Maybe a 50pair and the fiber as direct burial would be worth looking at as an option. Then there would be no Quasite boxes, not as much worry about avoiding running the cable only where large trucks would drive over it etc.
Since their security cameras run over IP, the fiber takes care of that - will consider a one time direct burial. :bow:
