What Are The Top 3 Considerations For Fiber Optic Installations?

 

Fiber optic cable installations need expertise for efficiency and avoid the risk of getting damaged cables.

Fiber optic cables are used for higher bandwidth and faster transmission of data across the network.

For proper installation of fiber optic cables, it is necessary to follow certain rules.

What to consider for efficient fiber optic installation?

1.       Minimum bend radius: Optical fiber cable installation is as simple as installing coaxial or UTP cable in the horizontal. The most important factor in optical fiber cable installation is maintaining the cable’s minimum bend radius. Bending the fiber cable tighter than the minimum bend radius may result in increases attenuation and broken fibres.

2.       Tensile rating: The fiber cable’s maximum tensile rating must not exceed during installation. The maximum permissible value is specified by the cable manufacturer. Tension on the cable should be monitored when a mechanical pulling device is used.

3.       Maximum vertical rise: All optical fiber cables have a maximum vertical rise that is a function of the cable’s weight and tensile length. This represents the maximum vertical distance the cable can be installed without intermediate support points. Some of the basic guidelines to follow for vertical installations include:

·         All vertical cable must be secured at the top of the run. A split mesh grip is recommended to secure the cable.

·         The attachment point should be carefully chosen to comply with the cable’s minimum bend radius while holding the cable securely.

·         Long vertical cables should be secured when the maximum rise has been reached.  


  

Apart from these three considerations there are certain other factors that are necessary to consider while installing fiber optic cables.

The cables within a duct should be separated with inner ducts to avoid entangling or damage leading to interruption of the service. Any new cable should be placed in a separate duct.

When pulling long lengths of cable through duct or conduit, less than a 50% fill ratio by cross-sectional area is recommended.

A small amount of slack cable can be useful in the event that cable repair or relocation is needed. If a cable is cut, the slack can be moved to the damaged point, necessitating only one slice point in the permanent repair rather than two slices if an additional length of cable is needed.
