Duplex vs BIDI

Im setting up a temporary office, and the fiber infrastructure is old and falling apart.

I thought I had a pair of mutlimode fiber, when I did the site survey I found one of the strands is damaged.

I'll get it the strand fixed eventually, however in the short term , I did some googling and came across BIDI

just curious why it is not more prevalent , I'v even had trouble finding a single strand multimode to UTP media converter.

as mentioned, I have zero experience with BIDI, but it sounds like an easy way to double your campus fiber .. but since I haven't seen this .. leads me to believe .. there is some downside or trade off that is not apparent.

would like to hear your experience
