If anyone has experience with this I’d appreciate any tips. There are two fiber pairs running up the building riser. I need to put a POEswitch on each floor using this fiber. In my experience with retrofitting existing structures, if you have access to the riser at each floor as it sounds like you do, you would typically drop in a new duct, blow micro duct through it with a branch for each floor, have an MDF or two In a utility spaces and them you have the ability to reconfigure the fiber as necessary to meet your present and future needs. You didn’t specify if the existing fiber is single or multi-mode however it is unlikely that the was enough slack built into two fiber runs to make 30 additional splices so that approach seems dubious as a premise. As you correctly surmise daisy chaining 30 switches is not an advisable network design practice.
+1 to that, Put your own fiber in and do a star topology to an MDF device. adam
