Description
The FRITZ!Box 5590 Fiber Edition International is a router that you can connect to your fiber optic connection right away. It works with AON and GPON, the most common fiber optics network. As a result, you don't need an extra box. Thanks to WiFi 6, you can connect multiple devices at the same time without your connection getting slower.

Solid quality - but fiber optic connection cable is missing
FritzBoxes last a very long time: this replaces my FritzBox 7360 from 16 years ago (!) which is still not broken but does not fit in my new Mesh network.
Unfortunately, there is no fiber optic cable to connect the modem and connection point.
I could have read it myself, but Coolblue service would be proactive to point this out when purchasing. After all, everyone needs that.
In fact: I can't even order such a piece of cable (< 10 euros) from Coolblue, I had to do it elsewhere.
