It is prudent to install indoor fiber optic cables inside "corrugated subducts" oranges to facilitate cable installation and protect it from future damage. The bright orange corrugated subducts will allow any worker in the future to identify the fiber optic cable and avoid possible damage. The additional initial cost of the corrugated subducts is offset by the simplification of the installation, which saves working time.
Use of cable ties
Fiber optic cables, like all telecommunications cables, are sensitive to compression loads. The cable ties used with many cables, especially when fitted with an installation tool, damage the fiber optic cables, weakening the cable and making it possible to break the fibers. When cable ties are used, they should be adjusted by hand, but not so much, allowing the cable tie to be moved along the cable by hand. Then the excess cable tie should be cut to avoid being adjusted in the future. Velcro cable ties are preferred for fiber optic cables, as they cannot compress enough to damage the cable.
Cut fire
Indoor cables must comply with fire codes and pass inspections so that each cable that enters a wall with fire risk must have fire-fighting systems. All telecommunications fire fighting systems must comply with standards and standards. All income must be protected with approved fire fighting systems. All fire- fighting compounds and devices must be used when breaking a fire separation with an installation. In most places, a break in a fire separation will require physical supervision until it is repaired. Check with your “Competent Authority” for specific project requirements before starting work.
