FAQ
During the appointment, the technician will install a small utility box called an optical network terminal (or ONT) outside or inside your home. The tech will then run a cable from a nearby equipment box to the ONT, which will carry the fiber-optic connection from the larger network to your premises.
Greater Bandwidth. Copper cables were originally designed for voice transmission and have a limited bandwidth. Faster Speeds. Longer Distances. Better Reliability. Thinner and Sturdier. More Flexibility for the Future. Lower Total Cost of Ownership.
What are two critical factors for a successful installation of fiber-optic cable? Cable pulling tension and bend radius.
Ribbon fiber requires different tools and equipment to perform splicing. What are the two critical elements that align the optical fibers in a connection? The ferrules and the mating adapter.
Cable Depth: the depth at which buried cable can be placed will vary with local conditions as with the case of 'freeze lines (depth to which the ground freezes annually). Corning Cable Systems recommends that fiber optic cable be buried a minimum depth/cover of 30 inches (77 cm).
What are some prerequisites before performing a fusion splice of optical fibers? A controlled environment such as a splicing van, trailer, or tent and a stable work surface that is large enough to accommodate the fusion splicer, tools, and the splice closure.
With direct burial installation, the cable typically steel-armored outdoor fiber cable is either plowed in or trenched. With plowing, the cable is fed into the hole as a specialized vehicle plows the line.The cable is laid in the trench, and then another six inches of protective granular soil is laid on top.
There are two primary types of fibre multimode and singlemode. Multimode fibre can carry multiple light rays (modes) at the same time by having varying optical properties at the core; essentially light travelling the shortest path (down the middle) travels the slowest.
Locate your fiber network terminal. Connect the fiber terminal to the network box. Plug in your network box. Connect your device to the network box. Set up your home Wi-Fi network.
