G.2.1 Cables
STM recommends cables from
Times Fiber
. For cable lengths up to 62 m,
Times Fiber
series 6 (diameter
6.93 mm) can be used. For lengths up to 82 m, use series 11 (diameter 10.2 mm) and for longer lengths,
use series 500 (diameter 14.2 mm).
Important: Do not use amplifiers or attenuators on the Tx-cable.
Use type “F” connectors for the cables.
The cable pulling from the ODU to the IDU must be performed according to the customer. Sharp bends
on the cables must be avoided (see figure below).
