  • Reserved length at aerial optical cable joint

    Reserved length at aerial optical cable joint

    Fiber optic cable should not be coiled in a continuous direction except for lengths of 100 ft (30 meters) or less. The minimum size for the “figure-eight” is about 15 ft (4. The Dielectric Standard Single Tube Drop (SST-Drop) cable is an optical cable containing a single, 3 mm buffer tube with 1 to 12 fibers. This cable is an outside plant drop cable designed for aerial self-support, overlash, placement in conduit, or direct-buried applications. The larger repeater spacing compared with 1-km spacing of coaxial systems was an important motivation for system designers because it decreased the installation and maintenance costs associated with each. MESSENGER COMPONENT and CABLE COMPONENT describe the two halves of the figure-eight cable. MESSENGER SPAN refers to the length of continuous messenger component tensioned between.
