Tips For Efficient Fibre Optic Cable Installation

By Earlene McGee


During the installation of any fibre optic systems, there are certain guidelines that must be followed to make sure that the end product will function effectively. For example, for this to be effective there should be minimum power lost during the procedure and also the time and cost of procedure should be as low as possible. Every fibre optic cable installation must be very reliable and safe. The following are some of the important factors that may be considered.

The environment is very important and it should be taken into consideration when installing any kind of system including the fiber optics. There are certain limitations that the installer of such systems is supposed to take care of so that they can work according to the conditions of the environment. This is one of the most important principles of this process that must never be overlooked.

There are also some procedural limits that must always be considered to making certain that the system works effectively. During the actual placing of the cable, the installer ought to make sure that it is not twisted and its radius is not bent otherwise it will not work as expected. There is also a certain temperature range that the cables should be in hence the installers are supposed to take this into consideration.

Every cable has a different load limit that must be considered before undertaking the procedure. When buying them, the installers are supposed to make sure they have read the data sheet to find out the guidelines of installing the system within the load limit. This sheet also gives some guidelines on how the installer can minimize the load when installing the cables.

The load on the cables can be limited during the installation process but it is not possible to reduce it after the process. Lubrication is one of the methods that can be applied to reduce the load and the friction. However, only cable lubricants should be used. This task can also be achieved by reducing the length of each cable as this will help to reduce the load.

The technician is also required to make certain that the placements of these cables are carried out in the most cautious way possible. This is since they are required to avoid interfering with the range of fibres. They can fit various different tubes on a single tube path to diminish the chance of bending or breaking the radius.

After all the cables have been successfully installed, the next task is the preparation of its ends so that the connector installations can be done. These tubes are not built to withstand exposure to open air hence they should be handled very carefully by the installers so that they cannot be damaged and fail to do what they are required to.

The guidelines mentioned above are simply examples of the various factors that should be considered when setting a fibre optic tube. To make certain that all the guidelines listed above are considered, the technician who is given this task must be very accountable and qualified.
