3.
Cable tension:
a. Do not exceed cable manufacturer maximum tensile rating
during cable installation.
b. No residual tension shall remain on cable after installation
except that which is due to cable's weight in vertical rise.
c. Cable tension shall be monitored during installation if winch
is used for installation. Hand pulls do not require
monitoring.
4. Vertical Rises:
a. Secure vertical cable at top of run.
b. Attachment point shall comply with cable's minimum bend
radius.
c. Provide intermediate support when manufacturer
specified maximum cable rise has been reached.
5. Cable Splicing and Termination:
a. All fiber strands shall be terminated at both ends.
b. Use of splices shall not cause attenuation of signal
exceeding allowable attenuation budget.
c. Make no splices within conduit or duct banks. Make
splices within pull boxes or process control system
equipment enclosures.
6. Fiber optic cable identification
a. All fibers shall be color coded to facilitate individual fiber
identification.
b. Labels shall meet the legibility, defacement, exposure and
adhesion requirements of UL969
c. Labeling shall conform to the requirements specified
within ANSI/TIA/EIA-606-A or to the requirements
specified by the Owner.
2.4 SINGLE MODE OPTICAL FIBER CABLE
A. Fiber Characteristics
1. General Fiber Specifications:
a. All fiber shall be of same manufacturer.
b. Fiber shall meet the distance limitations for 10 Gigabit
Ethernet Max Transmission Distance (m).

c. All fibers in the cable must be usable and meet required
specifications following installation and testing.
d. Fibers shall have dual wavelength capability; transmitting at
1310 and 1550nm ranges.
e. Outside Plant (OSP) Multimode.
f. OS1/OS2.
g. 12 strand (6-pair).
h. 7.3mm cable diameter.
i. Glass core, 250 m coating; tight buffered construction
designed for outdoor installation; Kevlar aramid yarn
strength members surrounding the cladding of each strand;
plenum rated jacket.
j. Complies with TIA/EIA-568-B.3 for color-coding.
k. Outer Jacket: UV & moisture resistant LSOH.
l. Optical Fiber proof stress: (1,500N).
m. Crush resistance: 5N/mm.
n. Operating temperature: -20°C to + 70°C (0db added
attenuation)
B. Fiber Optic Cable Installation:
1. Provide an additional 3m of cable slack at each hand hole, and
connection points allowing for future reconfiguration of connection
closets. Cable shall be neatly organized using cable management
hardware.
2. Do not exceed cable manufacturers minimum bend radius under
tension or final installation.
3. Cable tension:
a. Do not exceed cable manufacturer maximum tensile rating during
cable installation.
b. No residual tension shall remain on cable after installation except
that which is due to cable's weight in vertical rise.
c. Cable tension shall be monitored during installation if winch is
used for installation. Hand pulls do not require monitoring.
4. Vertical Rises:
a. Secure vertical cable at top of run.
b. Attachment point shall comply with cable's minimum bend radius.
c. Provide intermediate support when manufacturer specified
maximum cable rise has been reached.
