A campus backbone design linking two buildings requires that you install a high-fiber-count cable very quickly, using the conduit system provided. Cost is not so much an issue as urgency is to meet…

Multiple sheathed cables require more pull operations and fill more conduit space, and field connectorization adds significant on-site termination time, conflicting with the urgency requirement.

Multiple cables still require multiple pulls and pigtail splicing in a splice enclosure, adding complexity and time compared to a single preconnectorized cable.

A single high-fiber-count cable is the right cable choice, but field connectorization introduces on-site termination labor and cure time that slows deployment.

Pigtail connectorization requires fusion splicing pigtails to the cable ends in a splice closure, which adds steps and time compared to factory-preconnectorized assemblies.

A single sheathed cable is faster to pull through an existing conduit than multiple cables and reduces the risk of conduit congestion or fill-ratio violations. Factory-preconnectorized assemblies eliminate all field termination and curing time, which is the most time-consuming part of fiber deployment. Together, these choices directly address the urgency requirement while leveraging the provided conduit infrastructure for a two-building campus backbone.
