Depending on the split you need, I could get you some very aggressively priced 11G SAF Lumina that are used, working when taken down, With dishes or without. All you would have to do is buy the 1+1 mount or LACP them. That would double your capacity and hopefully at least get you through a deployed FTTH where replacement is pushed down the road. When you have to replace it the money is there to do it.
