Hello, I am burying a fiber optic cable so I have internet in my garage. I have purchased the following flexible conduit to run the fiber optic cable inside:

Diameter of the Kabuflex 40 mm.
*Inner diameter: 32 mm.

I have dug a 20m trench 60cm deep. What I need advice on is the transition from inside to outside. I don't want to drill a hole in the external wall large enough to feed to conduit through. I assume I need a junction box and adapter on the outside of the wall that the conduit connects with?

Thanks
 
Fibre optic is specialist cable needing expensive tools to terminate properly.... would CAT6 data cable not work?

The cable is already terminated. Just needs care when pulling through conduit.

Buried Ethernet can cause equipment failure when there is a lightning strike.
