5.07 One cable clamp kit is currently available. The OSP cable clamp kit accommodates
cables with outside diameters that range from 0.5 to 0.8 inches (13-20 mm).
5.08 Select a grommet that when placed around the cable, has a gap of nearly 0 to 0.30 inches
(0 - 8 mm). The grommet is not required if the cable diameter is between 0.7 inch and 0.8 inches
(1.78 cm and 2.03 cm).
5.09 Assemble the cable clamp components as shown in
chassis (see Figure 3). If the cable is routed to the chassis from above, install the cable clamp in
the upper part of the chassis. If the cable is routed to the chassis from below, install the cable
clamp in the lower part of the chassis.
5.10 Some outside plant cables are constructed with a metallic strength member or a metallic
inner sheath. Since OSP cables are exposed to electrical hazards, all metallic member OSP cables
must be bonded to ground. Follow local practice using an approved sheath grounding kit connected
to the #6 framework ground lead.
GAP OF NEARLY ZERO TO
0.30 IN. (7.6 MM) WHEN PLACED
AROUND CABLE.
IF CABLE DIAMETER IS MORE
THAN 0.70-IN. (17.8 MM) USE
ONLY RUBBER CLAMP.
