The bending radius of optical cable during laying process should be effectively guaranteed to avoid “gold hooks” and avoid too much tension, abrasion and too many times of twists and turns.
FlexNAP System Cable Assembly Placing Lashed Aerial
This procedure outlines the use of both dedicated messengers (a strand installed solely for the fiber optic cable), and “overlashing” installations in which a fiber optic cable is lashed to a copper or fiber
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
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.
