      My search skill sapparently suck today.

      I need fiber optic patch panels with LC simplex connectors as that is what the fiber in the ground has.

      5 or more pairs required. I can find lots of things with LC duplex...

      I found this one, but it doe snot clearly state is that is LC simplex.
      https://www.amazon.com/Mount-Steel-Fiber-Adapters-Patch/dp/B07XYDN1VS

      Are LC Simplex designed to fit in LC duplex?

        Yes, they are the same. Duplex are two simplex mounted together.

                      2nd fs.com

                      Great place to get SFP+ cables for whatever switch you need. Plus about 1/2 the price as OEM.

                          It's nice of you to support the middle man. Good when you need support.

                          I like to buy from FS because they are the manufacturer.

                            I am not going to deal with making accounts at 500 vendors for random shit I need to buy for random client.

                                      No the distributor needs to fix the issue as to why the items didn't arrive. The reason doesn't matter to the distributor. Only do you care why an item didn't arrive, rather than knowing the issue is getting fixed.

                                        Just in case anyone needs this info.
                                        I buy all my fiber related stuff from fs.com

                                        I buy from distribution channels.

                                        It's nice of you to support the middle man. Good when you need support.

                                        I like to buy from FS because they are the manufacturer.

                                        When I need something, I send two emails. One to CCB and one to Insight.
                                        I am not going to deal with making accounts at 500 vendors for random shit I need to buy for random client.

                                        But it's more fun managing those relationships yourself!

                                        ........

                                        It more fun for sure when you don't get the shit your ordered and you wonder why.

                                        As if manufacturers never mess up. Take your tinfoil hat off.

                                        Tinfoil?

                                        The difference is that manufacturers knows why you didn't get your shipment while the distributor has to call the manufacturer and find out.

                                        But if you're only ordering one patch cable then there is no point ordering from a manufacturer.

                                          1 or 1 million, it doesn't matter. The distribution network is what Jared is looking to leverage, rather than having to call each part of the order chain and figure out where something is. Just call your Dist. Manager and they get the issue resolved for you.
