Abstract
A technique for installing a fiber optic network includes preparing a physical site to install a feeder cable and a plurality of access stub lines along a plurality of customer premises that potentially may connect to the feeder cable to obtain communication services. Each of the access stub lines extends from the feeder cable towards a customer premise and each ends at a different initial termination point. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the customer premises and the access stub lines extending from the feeder cable. A demarcation device is attached to an end of each of the access stub lines at each of the initial termination points. The demarcation device includes an optical reflector that is reflective to an optical test signal for testing integrity of the feeder cable and an associated one of the access stub lines.
