Fiber Cable Hardware and other factors
For every installation, a complete materials list must be created listing each component needed and quantities required. This list will be used by the installation crew, but first it will be used to estimate the cost of the project. Optic
- Product line consists of fiber optic cable, optical connectivity, fusion splicers, and test equipment, as well as fiber management systems, closures, and accessories.
- Zero Tolerance for Dirt ,With fiber optics, our tolerance to dirt is near zero. Dirt on connectors is the biggest cause of scratches on polished connectors and high loss measurements
- For Outside Plant Cable Installation , Protect exposed cables from vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
- For underground installations, pull long cables from the center of the run. Store excess cable in vaults or manholes, and identify optical cables with markers.
Buried in a new or existing conduit.
Plowed in using special machinery.
Put in using directional boring.
Buried directly in a trench/micro-trench.
Blown into already buried ducts.
Buried underwater.
- For Aerial installation Use of proper hardware that matches cable type, as well as span and tension requirements. Use the correct cable jacket.
- For Buried cable installations, Identify cable locations with surface markers. Anticipate obstructions.
