Home / Mechanical traction for laying optical cables
The traction force for laying optical cables should not exceed 80% of the allowable tension of the cable. (FOA) was founded in 1995 to help develop the workforce to build the fiber optic networks to support a rapid expansion in communications and the Internet. Recommendations for Fiber Optic Cable Installation Where reels are supplied with protective material fitted over the cable, the protection should remain in place until the cable will be installed. Failure to follow these guidelines may result in damage or attenuation increases of the optical fiber or cable.
When mechanical traction is used for fiber optic cable laying, centralized traction, intermediate auxiliary traction, or dispersed traction should be selected based on factors such as traction length, terrain
