@cobtel: Want to know how far you can bend a fiber optic cable before it affects your internet speed? First, we need to know that once the fiber's loss reading passes -27 dBm, this fiber modem will basically lose its internet connection. Now let's start by testing a bend. Bend it to this angle, and it's pretty much done for it's already over 27. Then straighten the cable back out. Next, let's test whether coiling it up the way you normally would has any effect, to see how small the loop needs to get before it starts to matter. If you coil it down to about the size of your fist, there's basically no effect. Then shrink the loop down a little more right down to this size and there's still almost no effect. But you can't bend it sharply the way you would an Ethernet cable. If you bend it like that, it's definitely done for. You've got to keep the curves nice and round no sharp bends allowed.
