I use factory-terminated cable assemblies ("jumpers") that are 1' (one foot)
in length.
They come in handy in certain situations where real estate is dear.
Fiber is tricky. Our installer had one heck of a time terminating a short
segment. Less
is not always more when you're dealing with fiber. It depends on the skill
of the
installer and the sensitivity of the installation equipment.
