These enclosures (including all electronics but SFP) are around $350.
SFP is another $110 for 10km bidi optics w/ DOM.
The cable cost to reach the home with connectors can run around =
$1-2/meter, excluding pole attach or burying costs.
The cable cost quickly comes to rival the cost of the enclosure.
