Armored Fiber Jumpers

Over the years I've come across situations where I needed to extend a fiber jumper from one location to another and didn't feel that a traditional jumper would be protected enough in our environment.  The first solution to this problem was to run the fiber jumper through some plastic conduit.  This not only took a very long time, but looked terrible when we were done.  The second method was to pay a company for a made to order armored fiber cable.  The trouble here is the cable is way too stiff and when you get to the end you still have a few feet of standard, unprotected fiber cables.  This also looks messy on the termination end. loose fibers at the end of an armored cable certainly don't belong in a harsh environment
