Depends on the Fibre cable type.
Newer Singlemode can be taken to a radius if 7.5mm, I'm biased.. but we have now developed cables that you staple to skirting and treat like a normal cable.
The radius of Cat6 and Coax should be greater to attain full potential from cabling.
Cat6 (4x outer diameter, so generally a 24mm bend radius).
The active kit however is too costly at the moment, but it is falling fast.
If I was re-moddeling a high end home, I would consider dropping in cable just to have it covered.
