Personally I have not had issues with using one fiber pair for all my services. We have had 100% up time on our fiber in the last 9 months. But in a high profile situation I would break it up as to not put all my eggs in one basket.

1 pair. Demux your fiber via distribution through CSU/DSU. 1 pair can be up to 107Gigabites per second (http://www.teleclick.ca/2006/12/siemens-achieves-fiber-optic-data-bandwidth-of-107-gbps/). You were just talking the drop-off?
