Multi Dwelling Unit (MDU) cables covered by this standard
\ninclude two classes of cables using single mode fiber. The first
\nclass includes cables used for distribution and delivery of optical
\nfiber from a demarcation point starting at a conventional optical
\nfiber cable, optical fiber splitter or active optical device
\nthrough an aesthetic duct or less rigorous routing path. This class
\nof cable may consist of an indoor-only rated cable, the Compact
\nDrop or Small Form Factor Compact Drop. The second class of cable
\nis defined to be more rugged and is described as cables that
\nusually terminate at the customer electronics, or Optical Network
\nTerminal (ONT). The rugged cable class may be stapled, routed
\naround corners under tension, and coiled in a tight diameter.
\nExamples include the Rugged Indoor Drop or Indoor\/Outdoor Rugged
\nDrop. See clause 1.4 for a more detailed definition of these cable
\ntypes. <\/p>\n
Fiber mechanical reliability requires that a cable classified as
\nRugged shall meet the enhanced mechanical reliability requirements
\nset forth in this document. <\/p>\n
Cables containing Multimode fibers are not covered by this
\nstandard. MDU cables using Multimode fibers should follow the
\nintent herein using optical limits given by ICEA 596 where
\nappropriate. <\/p>\n
Applications Space <\/p>\n
All designs covered by this Standard are intended for operation
\nunder normal conditions found in the communications user's
\npremises; the indoor\/outdoor designs may also be used in a limited
\noutdoor environment, such as attached to the outside of an MDU.
\nThese products normally convey communications signals (voice,
\nvideo, and data) from point to point or point to multi point. These
\ncables are intended for use from a local distribution point on or
\nwithin a building to single or multiple units throughout a
\nbuilding. Products covered by this Standard may be factory
\nterminated with connectors or splicing modules. <\/p>\n
Temperature Ranges <\/p>\n
The normal temperature ranges for cables covered by this
\nStandard are listed in Table 1-1: <\/p>\n
Tensile Rating <\/p>\n
The standard installation tensile ratings for cables covered by
\nthis Standard are: <\/p>\n
\u2022 Indoor Small Form Factor Compact Drop 40 N (9 lbs) <\/p>\n
\u2022 Indoor Compact Drop 220 N (50 lbs) <\/p>\n
\u2022 Indoor Rugged Drop 440 N (100 lbs <\/p>\n
\u2022 Indoor\/Outdoor Rugged Drop 440 N (100 lbs) <\/p>\n
The residual load is defined as a load equivalent to 30 percent
\nof the rated installation load. <\/p>\n
Minimum Bend Diameter <\/p>\n
The standard minimum bend diameter for cables covered by this
\nstandard, unless otherwise specified, is in accordance with ICEA
\n596. For cables that are not round, the bend diameters are
\ncalculated using the minor dimension. <\/p>\n
For rugged drop cables, either a 10 mm or 15 mm bend diameter
\nspecification shall be used. Specific test requirements exist in
\nsection 7.25. It is understood that the cable may act as a
\nself-bend-limiter to provide mechanical protection for the
\nfiber. <\/p>\n
Fire Rating <\/p>\n
Products covered by this Standard shall comply with the
\npertinent Fire Resistance Code(s) described in Section 1.9.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
