FiberPatrol Site Planning & Installation Guide

Cable ties

FiberPatrol sensor cable is attached to the fence with stainless steel cable ties. The stainless steel 
cable ties provide long life and a high level of security. A cable tie tool is required to attach the 
stainless steel ties to the fence. The stainless steel cable ties are available with bare metal or vinyl 
coated in lengths of 8, 14, and 20 inches. For situations in which the FiberPatrol cable will be 
installed on a temporary fence and will be redeployed later, UV resistant polyethylene cable ties 
are recommended.

Sensitivity loops

Corner posts, terminal posts and heavy gauge tension posts generally have a dampening effect on 
nearby fence vibrations. To compensate for this, use sensitivity loops at all corner posts, terminal 
posts and heavy gauge tension posts on the fence. The sensitivity loops provide additional sensor 
cable for areas that typically produce lower levels of fence noise (see 

Figure 32

).

Service loops

Service loops provide extra sensor cable for making future repairs, and for making fusion splices. 
A 10 m (33 ft.) service loop is recommended for every 300 m (984 ft.) of installed sensor cable. A 
10 m service loop is also recommended on the hinged side of each gate that is protected by 
sensor cable. In addition, a 10 m (33 ft.) splice point service loop is required for each section of 
sensor cable at all splice enclosure locations. A 10 m service loop is typically comprised of 5 
circular loops of cable with a 60 cm (2 ft.) diameter (see 

Figure 34

).

Isolation loops

Isolation loops are optional, but are recommended for situations where a zone needs to be 
isolated from adjacent zones (e.g., gate isolation). Isolation loops are also recommended as a 
buffer between detecting sensor cable and software defined non-detecting cable. Fence-mounted 
isolation loops use 14 in. steel cable ties to secure 7 loops of sensor cable to the fence. The 7 
loops have a 60 cm (2 ft.) diameter, which requires approximately 13 m of sensor cable.
