I'm guessing a sweeping bend will stick out further? Just to add to the fun, there's a path running along both the side with the ETP and around the corner. If it wasn't in such an busy area I wouldn't mind but I'm really trying to keep it tidy and discrete.

@phantomdb The soffit is in segments, but appears to be nailed into place. Even if I pop the nails out, it appears to be interlocked with everything around it.

Ah right. Nah it's something like pressed colour steel.

Are there eaves on the building? Could you run up the wall from the ETP and along the underside of the eaves and around the corner, thereby keeping it out of the way? Would seem to help too as you would then run above the doorway between the house and garage.

That is another option. Would the cable from the ETP to the ONT need to be in any sort of ducting if it's tacked under the eaves however?

Not sure. Maybe one of the installers on here could tell you. If it was the 'ruggedised' microduct variety then maybe no ducting needed?!?
