Fiber Optic Cable Reel Packaging Requirements Standards

Home / Fiber Optic Cable Reel Packaging Requirements Standards

Cable manufacturers follow NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Association) WC 26, Binational Wire and Cable Packaging Standard for minimum drum diameters on cable reels. Selection of proper reel (spool) size depends on the length and overall diameter (O. Reel in a Box is Corning's innovative packaging solution for small reels of fiber optic cable in all inside plant applications, such as collocation data centers and wireless projects. The reel's structural components consist of two flanges, central drum, flange bolts, SmartReelTM test connector and horizontal wood slats (Figure 1) that keep the reel in alignment and protect the fiber cable from any damage that may occur during transporting and storage.
