Is there a link/list of SFP transceivers used by Telus in Edmonton?
Am exploring the option of bypassing the Telus ONT by way of connecting bend-insenstive patch cable from the Telus NIB on house exterior to EdgeRouter X SFP router located 15-20 feet away inside resi...
My understanding (possibly incorrect) is that the SFP must be provisioned to set up some kind of encryption or authentication keys, and you wouldn’t be able to do that yourself. Even if you can just swap in your own somehow, what do you hope to achieve by doing this? I certainly understand wanting to replace the router and using your own for many different reasons, but I don’t see any reason to do so for the ONT apart from “because I can”.
Mainly curiosity / part of an exercise in becoming familiar with (not expert in) networking at the endpoint, including configuration/operation of a wired router like the Edge Router X SFP in a SOHO use case. So no expectation of any service level/bandwith improvement, and no plans to quit the day job:>

Do you have Optik TV service?
No. I passed on all the extrax, as only needed the high speed internet.
