3.5.18 All ribbon fibers have to be free of torsions when spliced. Take
the different ribbon fibers of one cable between two fingers (same
color up). Slide the fingers over the ribbon fibers, moving towards the
end of the cable. Refer to the splice manufacterer’s instructions for
directions of fiber splicing.
3.5.19 Cut the ribbon fibers at a length of110cm, measured from the
tray’s entrance (easier for storage in tray, see drawing at point 6.4.6).
Note
: when intertray jumping is required, do not cut the ribbons
shorter before they are on the appropriate tray.
3.5.21 Route the ribbon fibers on the tray in an orderly fashion,
as shown on the drawing.
Note
: Store the ribbons as much as possible in bundles. Avoid
crossings.
