Fiber-optic Cable Installation

Follow these guidelines when you install fiber-optic cables:
1. Cable routing:
Raised floor: You may install fiber-optic cables under a raised floor. Route
■
them away from any obstruction, such as existing cables or other equipment.
Cable tray or raceway: Place the cables in position; do not pull them through
■
the cable tray. Route the cables away from sharp corners, ceiling hangers,
pipes, and construction activity.
Vertical rise length: Leave the cables on the shipping spool, and lower them
■
from above; do not pull the cables up from below. Use proper cable ties to
secure the cable.
General: Do not install fiber-optic cables on top of smoke detectors.
■
2. Cable management:
Leave at least 4.6 m (15 ft) of cable at each end for future growth.
■
Use strain reliefs to prevent the weight of the cable from damaging the
■
connector.
Review all information in this manual and in any related manuals about
■
safely handling fiber-optic cables.
3. Connector protection:
Insert connectors carefully to prevent damage to the connector or fiber.
■
Leave the connector's protective cover in place until you are ready to make
■
connections.
Replace the connector's protective cover when the connector is disconnected.
■
Clean the connector before making a connection. Make sure that there are no
■
obstructions and that keyways are aligned.
