Construction of optical fiber cable pulling
This document discusses techniques for installing optical fiber cables through pulling or blowing. It covers topics like route planning, cable handling, tools required, cable storage, installation methods, and techniques to maximize cable length during pulling. Most fiber damage does not come from normal operation after the system is live. It happens during installation, when excessive pulling force, tight bends. Most fiber optic cables boast a pull strength of 100 – 200 pounds thanks to the internal kevlar or aramid yarn, known as the strength member.
