What do you need? Im near Danville Illinois and have some LC-LC cables.   Also 
have some LC-SC.   I think all mine are 1 meter.  

Other than that  I don’t know of anyone until you get to Indianapolis.

Lc lc single mode. Fs.com had an issue at the beginning of the week
accepting cc payment. My contractor was going to bring spares. May just
have him splice the factory ends he cut off the fiber. Was hoping some
joint in bloominton carried them. This fiver to the radio thing is new to
us. I only ordered the top side patch, not the bottom. Live and learn.

On the bench, multimode patches worked between the switches, anrhything to
stop me from using those before the fs order drops? This is 100 and 200
foot.

If you have aqua OM3 or OM4 MMF patch cables, use them. You'll have no 
problems at a couple hundred feet with 10 or 20km optics. Hell, even OM1 
or OM2 cables would probably work fine. Never tried it though.


I put some 20k FS SFPs in new switches in the office and of course 
didn't have any single-mode cables for the patch panel at the rack. 20 
and 30 meter runs to the remote switches. I used the OM4 cables I had 
for over a week. Worked fine.
