The idea is to cut the fiber at each floor and insert a switch and daisy chain the switches together using one pair, and using the other pair as the failover side of the ring going back to the source so if one device fails it doesn’t take the whole string down.
Curious - blowing more fibre through the riser is a no-go? 30 floors worth of kit with only two spans is tricky any way you look at it. It would work, yes, but complexity will go up quite a bit. Of course, if there is absolutely no chance to run more fibre up the building, that is that. But if there is, just asking... Mark.
