Removing
steps

Each optical fiber cable is equipped with a Quick Card. Do read it before connecting
the optical fiber cables. The above two pictures are just examples. The real materials
may be different from those in the pictures.
Unpacking Warning
Sealing cap

PE film

Protective tube

Protective bag

Before distributing and bundling optical fiber cables,


do not remove the sealing caps, dustproof caps, PE
films, protective tubes or protective bags!
Dustproof Warning

Sealing cap Dustproof cap

Dustproof cap Dustproof cap

The optical fibers are delicate and they shall not be contaminated by dust. To avoid dust dropping into the
connectors, do not remove the dustproof caps and the sealing caps at both ends of the optical fiber cables too
early. Remove them right before connecting the equipment when the optical fiber cable is 1 m from the equipment.
The dustproof caps should be well kept in the boxes composed of the removed sealing caps for the cables and the
sealing caps for the equipment optical ports. If the optical fiber cables are disconnected in the middle of the cable
route, cover the cable connectors with the caps. If the optical fiber cables are disconnected from the equipment
temporarily, screw down the sealing caps (the sealing capacity can reach IP65 at this time).
Engineering Distributing Optical Fiber Cables 1

Do not pull the optical


fiber cable from the
inner side of the coil

get tangled.

method is quite convenient.

Compared with distributing the cable in a tower, lifting the cable through a pulley is
more convenient.
Engineering Threading Optical Fiber Cables Through
Holes in the Wall

Two technicians should cooperate at the two sides of the wall to thread the optical
fiber cables through holes in the wall or feeder outlets smoothly: one pulls the cable
and the other releases the cable coil after coil so that the cable will not get tangled.
Engineering Tubing Optical Fiber Cables

Lay the optical fiber cable neatly and let it go through tubes in sequence. During this
process, avoid cable tangling and do not tramp over the cable on uneven ground.
Engineering Bundling and Fixing Optical Fiber Cables

Do not bundle the


optical cable too
tightly. Otherwise,
optical loss will be
increased.

If the optical cables


are laid outdoors,
they shall be
bundled together
with the power
cables with anti-
ultraviolet ties or
clips. The intervals
between adjacent
ties/clips should be
consistently 500
mm.

Otherwise, redo Step 2.
Step 1 Connecting Optical Fiber Cables at the BBU Side

Remove the dustproof caps


from the connectors right
before connecting the
optical fibers.

Remove the corrugated hose


after the optical fiber cable
gets close to the BBU during
the distribution. After the dustproof caps are
removed, take care to keep the
front of the cable connector
clean and avoid contaminating it
with sweat, grease and dust.
During the maintenance, mount
the dustproof caps if the optical
fibers are disconnected.

Handling Common Problems
If the LC springs are on
the top of the duplex

The dual-LC connector may
have faulty contact (as shown in

case, push the LC connector to
the original slot (as shown in the
upper-right picture).
