Assuming it is the same problem as before, does it just need a new SFP or a new RJ45 end on the cable? US Internet would be happy to donate either as needed.

Sure, in the MICE cabinet (which I'm not sure of the number, it is in the
row parallel against the back wall in Suite 100 farthest way from the entry
door, in the top of a 1/3rd cabinet with MICE name on a label..)

On the EX4550 switch (there's only one EX4550 switch, it is the 1U fiber switch),
in port ge-2/0/0 (ie. the first port), is a copper SFP (again, the only one there is).
All that needs to happen is to push that copper cross-connect in, the spring
action has probably pushed it just a little too far out for good contact.
That is what it was last time.

And I think in general we should probably move that copper connection back to
the copper switches, but for now, just pushing it in would be good to go.
