Aerial Cable Placing Procedure

Aerial optical cable is suspended in the air from poles and/or support structures. Most often it is supported between poles by being lashed to a wire rope messenger strand with a small gauge wire.

INSTALLATION OF AERIAL FIBRE OPTIC CABLES

The same mounting accessories may be used with fibre optic cables as with traditional copper cables. However the splice closures are usually mounted on the poles.

FOA Standard For Installing Fiber Optic Cable Plants

While fiber optic cables generally are all dielectric and carry no electrical power, it may be necessary to work in areas that have installed electrical power cables and hardware.

FIBER OPTIC CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS

Fiber optic cable sequential numbers are required at each pole location and vault wall. Sequential numbers will identify conduit length, and slack left in vaults and at poles.

AERIAL COMMUNICATION CABLE IDENTIFICATION GUIDE

Field Identification: Fire Department cables can be easily recognized, as it is usually two small cables that travel parallel to each other, about 4” apart, from pole to pole (Figure 3-12).

Installation of Solo® ADSS All-Dielectric Self-Supporting Fiber

This procedure provides general information for installing all Corning Optical Communications Solo® ADSS All-Dielectric Self-Supporting fiber optic cables from 2-288 fibers.

The FOA Reference For Fiber Optics -Outside Plant Construction

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. Aerial installation is generally much less

Requirements for the Attachment of Communication Cable

No longitudinal third party owned fiber optic cable attachments are permitted on the overhead transmission system (69 kV and above) unless it is in the communication space on an under built
