looking for optic fiber cable

[almesallaty]

hi all.

as title says,i'm looking for the small optic cable that connects the wall unit to the fiber CPE unit.
my child managed to twist it and broke it last night.
i started looking this morning but couldn't find any including telkom shop.(my fiber connection is done by Openserve)
afrihost support system is offline.

anyone knows where can i find this cable? preferably a shop that i can go to tomorrow morning
i'm based in durban

Go look for a telkom van next to the road or drive to one of their tech depots, there's bound to be people on call out / over time.

Opposite overport city in south rd there is a telkom technical services site, telkom exchange right next to it. A bit further on first left into highview str there's the telkom microwave site. Then inside overport city/atrium is a normal customer facing shop for the public.

hi,
scoop.co.za has a physical shop near cornubia, they are out of stock currently of that cable but the guy works there made a temporary solution by using two different cables with adapter between them that allow the CPE to be connected again. i paid 60 rands for the 2 cables and the adapter.

sorry for the late reply
