I've thought of and tried that one before on the one run that is not

I'm not an expert on fibre (in fact far from it) but I seem to remember when looking into it for one of my previous employers that it seemed to be something that required specialist equipment to install and terminate. I could be wrong but maybe you might be worth talking to some of the data network suppliers and see what they say.
