That's a crazy/brilliant idea! How did the fibre exit the sewage system at the home?

Sewage systems are non-pressurized gravity flow and many have cleanouts for service. The line could exit out via the cleanout. My house has a clean out just as the sewer line exits the foundation, and the sewer line itself is a 4" pipe. Lots of room and easy access.

I don't think you'd like the water-proof junction box.
