Fiber Drop Cable Route
Do not look into the ends of optical fibers. Exposure to invisible
LASER radiation may cause serious retinal damage or even
blindness. Verify the optical source is disabled through the use of
an optical power meter before handling optical fibers.
Use caution when routing wires and cables. Avoid severe bending
and routing over sharp edges. Use grommet material when possible
to avoid wear on cable insulation.
The Outer enclosure offers several alternatives for Fiber installation. These include:
• Corning Optitap
• Pre-terminated Drop cable
• Drop cable and Field splice or Field termination
If using an Optitap adaptor (purchased separately), the adaptor must be mounted to the plate
as shown in
Figure
14.
For other drop cable types the Fiber may be routed through a riser conduit. It can then be
terminated at the bulkhead adapter shown below in
