How thick is the cable from the Customer Splice Point?

How thick is the cable from the Customer Splice Point to the ONT?
Would it fit through a 10mm diameter hole?

I reckon so.

It’s no thicker than dropwire, and that was an 8mm hole required.

54-46 was my number

Mine was installed today, I predrilled hole to avoid them drilling outwards and blowing a brick.

10mm was perfect for what he needed.

The 18m of internal fibre to my ONT is about 1mm diam, translucent and fixed by glue to the wall/ceiling corners.

That will be an MDU install using OFS Invisilight - nice gear - but not used in the single dwelling market (that I'm aware of).
