Fiber optic cable hanging in mid-air

Home / Fiber optic cable hanging in mid-air

Aerial optical cable is suspended in the air from poles and/or support structures. Most often it is supported between poles by being lashed to a wire rope messenger strand with a small gauge wire. Aerial Cable Installation 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. Placing optical fiber cables in duct systems using air-assisted installation techniques presents different installation requirements than traditional pulling. Fiber In-Duct Costs are comparatively high since the microduct must be deployed before fiber can be blown. The additional time and cost of the blowing head and compressor makes this an unattractive solution unless the plant/equipment is already owned.

Air-Assisted Installation Considerations

Corning Optical Communications field trials have confirmed that a single air-assisted device can install 1500 to 2100 meters (5000 to 7000 feet) of optical fiber cable under good conditions. Longer lengths
