Air-blowing optical cable laying construction plan
156 describes air-assisted methods for installation of optical fibre cables in ducts. Placing optical fiber cables in duct systems using air-assisted installation techniques presents different installation requirements than traditional pulling. When laying loops of fiber on a surface during a pull, use "figure-8" loops to prevent twisting the cable. The figure 8 puts a half twist in on one side of the 8 and takes it out on the other, preventing twists. (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.
