4-12 Installing the OSP cables
AccessNode 323-3001-210 Issue 1.0
Procedure 4-3
Butting and stripping the fiber cable
This procedure explains how to butt and strip the OSP fiber cable in the
termination compartment when the fiber is to be bonded and grounded in the
termination compartment.
Table 4-4 shows where to find additional information regarding fiber
installation for:
• fiber cables that are spliced, grounded and bonded in locations external to
the S800A cabinet such as a customer-owned manhole
• fiber cables that are to be spliced inside the S800A cabinet at the fiber
management system such as the ADC fiber patch panel
Note 1: For installations where the OSP fiber cable is spliced, bonded and
grounded in a location that is external to the cabinet, fiber pigtails or patch
cords will be entering the S800A cabinet rather than an OSP fiber. These
fibers will have been protected by split flex tubing (or equivalent) at the
time of pulling the fibers into the cabinet (see Procedure 4-1 on page 4-4,
“Pulling the OSP cabling into the cabinet”).
Note 2: For installations where the OSP fiber cable is to be spliced at the
fiber management system mounted inside the cabinet, the fiber cable will
be butted and stripped during the fiber routing and splicing procedures
detailed in Chapter 7, “Routing and splicing the fiber cable”.
