Installing Fiber Cable
This section describes how to install fiber optic cables into the cabinet, including how to
route and groom the outside plant cables and splice fibers to the distribution systems.
Fiber management guidelines
When installing, splicing, and routing fibers in the cabinet, follow these guidelines:
Avoid tight bend radii for fibers and provide adequate strain relief.
Dress and secure fiber jumpers using velcro straps or other soft-tie method designed for
fiber. Do not use plastic cable ties, which can damage a fiber.
Label jumpers to simplify identification at splice and distribution locations.
Installing Outside Plant Fiber Cable
Install outside plant (OSP) fiber cable into the cabinet and prepare it for splicing. The
following steps are general guidelines only. Follow local practice wherever applicable.
To install outside plant fiber cable
1.
Open the cabinet's splice compartment door.
2.
Route the OSP fiber cable from the feeder location through the conduit and up into the
cabinet.
3.
Pull the fiber cable up into the splice compartment through the entry duct. Pull enough
cable length to extend to the splicing location.
4.
Using ropes or cable ties, temporarily hang and secure the OSP cables inside the splice
compartment.
5.
If splicing shall be performed at a later time, do the following:
Using rope or cable ties, temporarily hang and secure the OSP cable inside the splice
compartment.
Make sure the cable arrangement allows the door to close. Take care to not violate
the cable bend radius requirements.
The following steps are general guidelines only. Follow local practice where applicable.
To prepare outside plant cables for splicing
1.
If necessary, untie or cut the bindings temporarily securing the OSP cable inside the
splice compartment.
2.
Strip off the cable's outer sheath to expose the core tubing. Take care not to damage the
fibers inside the core tubing.
