We have a garden office that is 125m from the house without a working network connection at present.
I have tried running a Cat 6 cable that length however it does not seem to like it for some reason and limits the speed to 10Mbps.
I noticed that there is a fibre to RJ45 converter installed in the office, suggesting that the previous owner connected to the house via fibre; unfortunately the fibre cable has been pulled out for some reason.
I know very little about fibre but it sounds like it may be the right choice for this length. Firstly; what sort of cable would I require? It will be installed below ground in an existing duct at a length of 125m.
Is there anything else that I need to consider?
