External Aerial Optical Cable Construction
Cable installation standards cover direct burial, conduit pulling, lashed and ADSS aerial cables. Deploying fiber above ground on poles or towers removes the need for underground digging and is particularly useful when the ground is uneven, rocky or both. It is important when installing aerial optical fibre cable lengths to make proper arrangement for an adequate extra length of cable at a pole position for testing and jointing. Aerial fiber optic cable refers to a kind of fiber optic cable that is designed and used for outside plant (OSP) installation between poles by being lashed to a wire rope messenger strand with a small gauge wire. This page summarizes key engineering considerations frequently encountered in real field conditions.
