These cables are called aerial fiber cables and are commonly used for outside plant (OSP) installation on poles. Deploying fiber above ground on poles or towers removes the need for underground digging and is particularly useful when the ground is uneven, rocky or both. (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. The specific environmental conditions of a project determine which method – or combination of methods – is the. Aerial optical cables can be divided into two categories: self-supporting and Catenary.
