Loose tube cables must be looped. Allow for thermal expansion and contraction. FO-VC2 JOINT USE - VERICAL MIDSPAN CLEARANCES 48. FO-RI JOINT USE RISER. Minimize mechanical pressure on the outer sheath at crossing points: (armoured) cables crossing each other generate points of high pressure, so it is important when laying in figure 8 loops it is done in a correct way. When laying loops of fiber on a surface during a pull, use “figure-8” loops to. For loose tube and ribbon cable, the bend radius is specified at 20 times the cable diameter during tension/installation conditions and 10 times during static conditions (check the data sheet). Do not step on cables, cable enclosures, or suspended nd of a fiber that may be carrying laser light. The iris of the eye will not clo e involuntarily as. e cited in contract, program, and other Agency documents as a technical requirement. 2, Hardware Quality Assurance Program Requirements for Programs and Projects.
