Home / Fiber optic cable blowing pressure
Typically, fiber optic cable blowing machines require air pressure ranging from 8 to 12 bars, but the exact requirement may vary depending on the cable diameter and pipe diameter. This is the preferred method for pushing fiber optic cable through a pre-installed conduit. Also, the optical fibre diameter evolution from 250 to 200 and now 180μm will cable was considered very fragile and must be protected in the ground.
Placing cables underground has the added benefits of reducing transmission losses, aiding planning consent and reduced risk of service supply loss through extreme weather. This practice covers the
