At $4.10 it's not great, but I would probably go for it. Biggest
driver for me would be the single cable up the tower and the ease of
securing that cable. I used to do 'box at the top' and moved to
individual runs to the base. The cabling is a nuisance with everything
at the bottom which is why I am looking at going back to the 'box at the
top' method. I have not found a great deal of difference in equipment
survival either way.
As for switches I'm considering doing 2 of these to serve 4 AP's -
http://www.garrettcom.com/csg14.htm Using simplex SFP's I can use one
fiber for each convertor. So far I have not found a 4 port GigE + 1
SFP extended temperature DIN rail mount switch. Still looking.

I have requested pricing on this as well. I think that in the end, it
was overly expensive (something like 4x the cost of doing 2 split
runs, $4.10/ft or something like that). If we could get that even
within 15% of what I'm paying now, I'd be happy.
