Rules for Binding Cables
Illustration
Keep the bound cables neat. The
horizontal cables should be bound with
proper and equal spacing between the
cable ties.
Rules for Binding Cables
Do not join several cable ties to make a
longer one and bind cables with it, which
may reduce the binding force.
The cable ties should be arranged in
good order. The extra parts of the
binders should be cut from the root
without leaving sharp points.
When binding cables, abide by the following
rules for the space between cable ties:
When the diameter of the cable bunch is
less than 10 mm, the space between
cable ties should be 150 mm;
When the diameter of the cable bunch is
between 10 mm and 30 mm, the space
between cable ties should be 200 mm;
When the diameter of the cable bunch is
equal to or larger than 30 mm, the space
between cable ties should be 300 mm.
When binding the bent cables, do not
bind them midway through the bend;
otherwise, the cores inside the cables
may be broken.
The bend radius of the cables (R) shall
meet the following requirements (D
refers to the cable diameter):
Cables for general use: R
≥
2D
RF cables: R
≥
15D in common
conditions; R
≥
10D in extreme
conditions.

The cables inside the cabinet should be
arranged from far to near. That is, lay the
cables to the farthermost end first,
putting them on the bottom layer in the
wiring area.
Do not cross or twist the cables
whenever possible.
