GigaLAN 10, the highest performance Augmented Category 6

cable, supports 10GBASE-T applications over a full 100-meter

channel, exceeding the requirements of the current Draft of

ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.2-10. IEEE 802.3an is looking beyond the

present, specifying an operating range from 1-500 MHz.

GigaLAN 10’s unique FlexWeb®combined with patented fluted

jacket construction isolates the cable pairs and has outstanding

pair-to-pair balance for superior headroom and reduced crosstalk.

•Lifetime Warranty*

•Increase in power to 500 MHz due to lower insertion

loss characteristics than Category 6.

•Improvement in NEXT and ELFEXT vs. draft

Category 6A – 2 dB minimum for NEXT and 4 dB minimum

for ELFEXT.

•Application –Support for 10 Gigabit Ethernet / 10GBASE-T /

IEEE 802.3an; fully backwards compatible for 10BASE-T,

100BASE-T, and 1000BASE-T applications.

•Power Sum Alien Crosstalk –Power Sum Alien Crosstalk

measures the impact of many aggressors on one victim

pair. It is the sum of unwanted signal coupling of crosstalk

noise from the external

cabling pairs into a victim

pair of a cable. In the

illustration (see Figure 1), a

bundle of 7 cables with 6

cables around a center

cable is depicted. What is

being measured is the

noise coupling from the

pairs in the outer ring of

cables (aggressor pairs) to

the pairs in the center cable (victim pair). Each pair of the

aggressor cables contributes noise to each of the pairs in

the victim cable. The total impact on the victim is

determined using a power summation equation.

Special Applications

LAN-TrakTMOSP

LAN-Trak OSP delivers TIA/EIA 568-B Category 5, 5e+,

or 6 electrical performance in an outside plant cable,

because even small amounts of moisture or water in the

cable will degrade the electrical performance of a

Category cable. These cables are designed for

exposure to the elements. Jacketed with black UV

resistant polyethylene, they employ a craft-friendly semi-

dry flooding material that cleans easily from the cable

core.

Traditional petroleum based gels such as “icky-pick”

result in hard to clean and time consuming cable prep

time. This thixotropic gel has a dry, soft texture that is

dermally safe and cleans easily with citrus based

cleaners. The result is faster cable prep time, quicker

clean-ups and happier technicians.

These cables allow you to extend your current network

to outdoor satellite structures such as temporary

classrooms or trailers in a campus environment. They

are also well suited for runs under concrete slabs and in

other wet locations.

These cables are offered in both unshielded (UTP) and

the more robust shielded (ScTP) cables. Also, the NEC

may require a Category 5, 5e, or 6 rated protection

device.

As with all horizontal cables, run length is limited to 90

meters (295 feet) per TIA/EIA 568-B for Category 5, 5e,

or 6 operation.

Special Applications

Cellular Tower

Cables

Mohawk’s Cellular Tower Cable is an overall foil/braid

shielded twisted pair cable intended for outdoor use. The

compact rugged design is more flexible versus traditional

armored cable typically used for this application. The

foil/braid shield is an excellent choice where interference

from external radio frequency or electromagnetic sources

is a concern.

These cables can be used not only to connect cellular

phone sites, but other services including pagers, mobile

radio, wireless data, personal communications service

(PCS), and even newer services such as high speed

broadband wireless internet access and weather

collection equipment.

•EMI & RFI Protection – 60% Coverage Braid and 100%

Coverage Metallic Foil Tape offer excellent EMI and RFI

immunity in a tower environment, where there may be

interference from other services located on the same

tower now or in the future.

•Easy Termination – Grounding is made simple because

the braid can be crimped to a ground wire or clamped to

the enclosure.

•Gel filled and fully water-blocked – Prevents migration

of water through the cable into sensitive electronics

enclosures. Gel filling prevents corrosion of the

conductors in the presence of water.

•UV stabilized polyethylene outer jacket.

•Meets applicable TIA/EIA Category grades.

•Category 5, 5e, and 6 conductors should be terminated

with 110 style Category rated jacks and the link

completed with a short Category rated patch cable.

•Standard RJ-45 plugs may not fit the Category 5e & 6

insulated conductors. Please consult the factory for the

proper plug to fit these cables.

The Optimax Connectors are reliable field installable

optical fiber connectors that are easy to install. They

do not require epoxy, curing or polishing. Their unique

design incorporates a factory polished fiber stub in a

splice mechanism which provides a fast, secure, and

reliable termination on optical fiber cables. All critical

steps are performed in the factory, ensuring a

superior-qualty connection every time. Only simple

tools are required for installation, making Optimax a

cost effective field termination.

Optimax Connectors are high-quality LC, SC and ST

Compatible connectors that use a ceramic ferrule with

a physical contact (PC) polish for Multimode and

super physical contact (SPC) polish for Single-mode

that ensures the best possible mating of optical fibers.

Connectors are available for 62.5 or 50/125 µm

Multimode fiber and Single-mode fiber installations.

Plug & Play

This Field Breakout Kit is designed to attach to one tube

of a loose tube cable and has either six or twelve 900 µm

tubes that hold each of the coated fibers. For each end of

the cable, one kit is needed for every tube. For example,

part number M9B511T has two tubes with six 62.5/125

fibers each. This cable requires four field breakout kits;

two for each end of the cable.

The kit is available in two sizes to accommodate the

two different tube sizes which are manufactured by

Mohawk. For tubes containing one to six fibers, the

diameter is 0.075" (1.9 mm) and for tubes containing

seven to twelve fibers, the diameter is 0.110" (2.8 mm).

Every kit is shipped with a complete set of instructions.

Recommended Applications

•Intrabuilding installations

•Data centers

Product Features

•2 - 144 Fibers

•Maximum Density, Minimum Diameter

Fibers are grouped in sets of 12. Small diameter and bend

radius facilitate installation in tight spaces.

•Easy Identification and Installation

Subunits are color-coded for identification. All-dielectric

construction eliminates the need for grounding. Fibers

terminated in MPO connectors.

Options

•

Available in 50

µm,

62.5 µm, single-

mode, and hybrid

constructions.

•

Available in colored

jackets.

Mohawk’s unique data center assemblies combine compact

size with industry standard MPO terminations to facilitate quick

installations with maximum flexibility. Cable diameters are

reduced by as much as 35% to save space in cable

management pathways. The MPO terminations allow the

cables to plug into a variety of manufacturers’ fiber cassettes

which convert the MPO interface to an LC, SC, ST or other

connector style. Factory terminations provide a pre-qualified

high performance connection which removes the variability of

field polishing from the link. All cables are plenum (OFNP) rated

to allow them to be installed in any interior location. The fiber

performance can be specified using Mohawk’s grading system

to match the application. Hybrid cables, combining different

fiber types, can also be specified.

UTP Installation

Guide

• Category 5e

• Category 6

UTP cables were developed and designed to be used

independent of the system application. Set transmission

performance criteria (Categories) have been established for the

various grades of UTP cables.

What are these Categories?

Categories are a method of classifying UTP cables and related

hardware within specific performance criteria.

Category 5e - Specifies cable and connecting hardware with

transmission characteristics up to 100 MHz. It differs from

Category 5 by having 3 dB tighter NEXT requirements and

additional requirements for PS NEXT, ELFEXT, PS ELFEXT,

and RL.

Category 6 - This document specifies cable and connecting

hardware with transmission characteristics up to 250 MHz. In

addition Category 6 has tighter insertion loss, NEXT, PS NEXT,

ELFEXT and PS ELFEXT over Category 5e.

Cable Handling

Length

The maximum horizontal cable length is 90 meters (295 feet).

Ten meters is allowed for cords in the work area, and for patch

cords or jumpers in the telecommunications closet.

The maximum backbone cable length is 90 meters (295 feet).

This 90 meter length assumes that 5 meters (16 feet) are

needed at each end for equipment cables connecting to the

backbone.

Pulling Tension

Maximum pulling tension for a 4 pair horizontal cable is 25 lbf.

Excessive pulling tensions may occur during installation. Once

the damage is done, reversing the effect may not be sufficient

enough to correct the problem and cable replacement is

recommended. Intermediate cable pulls within the overall cable

run may be necessary to avoid exceeding the maximum pulling

force.

Minimum Bend Radius

4 pair UTP cables have a 1” Min. Bend Radius.

CAUTION: Exceeding the minimum bend radius can distort the

cable geometry and result in degrading of transmission

performance.

Repositioning of the cable to the proper bend radii may not

correct the fault. Once the damage is done, the best option is

replacement of the damaged run.

There are two common places where exceeding the minimum

bend may occur:

• At the workstation wall outlet. After the cable is terminated,

too often the remaining cable is jammed into the wall outlet,

or worse, wrapped around itself and shoved into the outlet. A

better practice would be to gently work the excess cable

length back through the wall outlet into the wall.

• At the wiring closet, during routing of the cable to the terminal

block or patch panel. Prior cable placement practices may

have encouraged making the cable appear as formfitting or

tight against the routing structure (cable tray or rack) as

possible. A better practice would be to incorporate gently

sweeping curves along the cable path avoiding sharp bends

or changes in direction. Every effort should be made to

ensure the path the cable follows has smooth gradual

sweeps at any transition point.

Installation in Temperatures Below Freezing

The minimum installation temperature for plenum cables is

0° C (32° F). If the cable has to be installed when the temperature

is below 32° F the following precautions should be taken to

ensure that the jacket will not crack:

• Store the cable in a heated area whose temperature is above

50° F for 24 hours before installation.

• Transfer only enough cable to the job site for 4 hours work.

The cable will retain enough heat to prevent cracking. Cable

that has not been installed after 4 hours should be returned

to a heated area.

• Coil service loops in 10” to 12” loops. A tight coil could

cause the cable to crack.

• Normally the cables are terminated after the site is enclosed

and heated. Do not attempt to terminate the cables when the

temperature is below freezing.

Over Stressing

Eliminate cable stress caused by tension in suspended cable

runs and tightly cinched cable bundles

Excessive cable loading or stress can also occur if a cable is

incorrectly suspended in a cable run. A recommended cable

support spacing is 48" to 60" centers.

Avoid twisting of cable during installation. Excessive twisting

may result in distortion of cable geometry, and in severe cases

tears in the jacket.

In addition to the above guidelines extracted from TIA/EIA-568,

Mohawk strongly recommends the following supplementary

installation tips:

•Do not walk or step on high performance cable. Do not run

over high performance cable with hand trucks or forklifts.

This will exert excessive force on the cable, distorting the

geometry and/or crushing the pairs, resulting in electrical

shorts.

•Do not use staples, either from a staple gun or mounting in a

traditional manner with a hammer. Staples can exert

excessive force on the cable and distort the pair geometry.

•D-Rings, nail on clamps or Velcro straps offer acceptable

cable management techniques without compressing the

cable.

• Do not run cable near sources of heat, as this may

negatively impact cable attenuation.

•Maintain a 6" minimum spacing between cables and

sources of EMI, such as fluorescent lights or unshielded

power lines.

Termination

The installer must be acquainted with the Connector

Manufacturer’s installation instructions. The correct tools, wire

layout and untwist length are critical, especially in Category 6

installations. Modular jacks usually have the Pair color code

marked on the jack. The color code can be either T568A or

T568B wiring methods. Maintain the same pin to pair

combination throughout the installation. Changing pin pair

assignment can result in crossed pairs. Modular jacks and

cross-connect blocks employ IDC connectors to complete the

circuit between the cable and the hardware. The manufacturer

will recommend the tools needed to terminate the cable.

erminate with connecting hardware of the same category or

higher. Any link that has substituted a lower category

component is automatically classified to that lower category

The maximum allowable amount of untwisting during cable

termination to connecting hardware is 0.5" for Category 5e and

Category 6 cables. Exceeding the recommended length of

untwisting may cause performance problems. The same

techniques should be employed when terminating cross-

connect blocks. Maintaining jacket integrity to the point of

termination aids in maintaining cable geometry and NEXT

isolation from adjacent cable pairs.

Bridged taps and splices are not permitted as part of copper

horizontal cabling requirements.

esting

It is best to determine the lengths of several representative cable

runs and adjust the NVP to correspond to the known cable

lengths. If the readout for the cable length is longer than the

known length, the NVP should be decreased. Conversely, if the

readout for the cable length is shorter than the known length the

NVP should be increased.

The NVP values for Mohawk’s products are as follows:

A Note of Caution:

Level II or Level III Testers will be required to accurately

measure Category 5e and 6 permanent links and channels.

Fiber Installation

Guide

FOREWORD

It is assumed that the reader has a general

understanding of fiber optic cable constructions

and terminology. BICSI (www.bicsi.org) is an

excellent resource for general information.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• When installed on a live system, invisible laser

radiation may be present. Do not stare into

connector endface or view directly with optical

instruments.

• Wear safety glasses when working with optical

fiber.

• Dispose of all scrap fibers to avoid getting

fiber slivers.

Scope

The following guidelines are intended as a

general overview of important issues related to

the installation of fiber optic cable.

INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS

For a proper cable installation, it is important to

understand the cable specification. The two

most important specifications are the tensile

loading and bend radius specifications. It is very

important to adhere to these limits.

Tensile loading

Although there are two different types of tension

in fiber optic cables, the important tension for

the installation is the maximum load the cable

can be subjected to without causing permanent

damage. We call it the “maximum load

installation” and it is measured in Newton or

pounds. The “maximum load installation” can

also be known as “short term tension”,

“dynamic load”, “installation load” or

“installation tension”.

Whenever possible, the tension of the

installation should be monitored. The tension

can be measured with a dynamometer, or with

a pulling wheel. Breakaway pulling eyes are

available which separate if the tension

reaches a preset level. The use of a swivel is

recommended when pulling the cable in tray.

The swivel allows the cable and pulling rope to

twist independently.

If pulling a cable in an outside plant conduit,

the use of approved lubricants can help

minimize friction. The use of corrugated

innerducts can also help reduce the amount of

tension needed to pull the cable. When installing

loose-tube cables, the use of sealer is

recommended to prevent gel migration.

If a run is too long, or if several bends are in

the conduit, intermediate pull boxes should be

used to separate one pull into two or more

shorter pulls. A cable should not be pulled

through more than two 90°bends at one time. If

three or more 90°bends in a continuous run are

unavoidable, the cable should be installed from a

central point, unreeled into a figure-eight, and

then backfed to complete the installation. Sharp

bends may increase cable tension, so it is best

to install cable in sequences that minimize

stress and labor costs.

When running cable vertically, take note of

the cable weight. Install cables in a sequence

that applies the least amount of strain on the

cable. For example, most vertical chasers in

buildings tend to be congested at the lower

floors; instead, try to start your installation at

the top and work down the building, thereby

eliminating most of the cable installation by

the time you reach the lower floors. After

installation, the strength member of the cable

will need to support the hanging cable. If a long

vertical run is necessary, cable should be

secured at each floor and service loops should

be placed every three floors, at a minimum. This

procedure will help distribute the weight of the

cable vertically and will facilitate access to

moves, adds and changes (MACs), if needed at

a later date.

Bend radius

There are two types of bend radius:

•The short term minimum bend radius, or

dynamic bend radius, is the tightest

recommended bend while installing cable at

the maximum rated tension. It is the larger of

the two specified bend radii. Throughout the

pull, the minimum bend radius must be strictly

followed. If a location exists in the middle

of a run where a relatively tight bend is

unavoidable, the cable should be hand-fed

around the bend or a pulley can be used.

•The long term bend radius, or static bend

radius, is the tightest recommended bend

while the cable is under a minimum tension. It

is the smaller of the two specified bend radii.

After the pull is complete, the cable can be

bent more tightly to fit into existing space, but

not to exceed the long term minimum bend

radius.

Always follow the manufacturer’s guidelines

for minimum bend radius and tension. Failure

to do so may result in high attenuation

(macrobends) and possible damage to the cable

and fiber. Guidelines are normally supplied with

the cable manufacturer specification sheets. If

the bend radius specifications are unknown, the

industry de facto standard is to maintain a

minimum radius of 20X the diameter of the

cable.

The minimum bend radius must also be

adhered to when using service loops. Fiber optic

splice trays and patch panels are designed to

accommodate the bend radii of the individual

fibers, but outside of the hardware, extra care

must be taken.

INSTALLATION TOOLS

Gripping Techniques

General

To effectively utilize all of the available strength

in the cable, the strength member must be used.

The manufacturer’s specification will identify the

strength member(s) in the cable.

Cables with aramid yarn as the strength member

For cables using aramid yarn alone as the

strength member, the jacket can be removed

exposing the aramid. The aramid should be tied

in a knot with the pull rope, so that the jacket will

not be inadvertently used for strength.

Optionally, the jacket can be tied into a tight

knot before pulling. After pulling, the knot should

be cut off.

MOHAWK 63

Fiber Installation

Guide

Cables with aramid yarn and an e-glass central

member

For cables using aramid yarn and an e-glass

central member, a pulling grip should be used.

The strength member(s) should be attached

independently. This can be accomplished by

weaving the strength member into the fingers of

the grip, and then taping it together. All strength

members should be gripped equally to ensure a

proper distribution of tension.

Pre-terminated Fiber Optic Cable Assemblies

General

The factory pre-terminated fiber optic cable

assemblies may be specified in project

environments such as Data Centers. The

assemblies can be ordered in either indoor

(plenum) or outdoor versions, and different fiber

counts, and in multimode or single-mode. A

pulling eye can be factory installed on either end

or on both ends of the cable. The pulling eye

(and associated cable netting) will protect the

pre-terminated ends during the pull. This product

is a great time saver ensuring quality

connections every time.

Pulling eye

The pulling eyes (and associated cable

netting) are highly recommended. The pulling

eye will facilitate the installation as well as

protecting the pre-terminated ends during

the pull.

For both regular and pre-connectorized

cables, the maximum pull force is identified

with the “installation maximum load” cable

specification on our Datasheets.

In many cases, pulling is not done from point

to point, but rather from an intermediate point

pulling back in each direction to each

termination location. It is then important to make

sure that the cable is ordered with two pulling

eyes, one at each end.

The installation of a cable, which is pre-

connectorized on both ends, requires special

raceway considerations and pulling grips. A

typical fiber optic connector is 0.5 in. (1.25 cm)

in diameter, has a limited pull-off rating and must

be protected during cable placement. A pulling

grip for a pre-connectorized cable must

successfully isolate the connectors from any

tensile load by placing the load on the cable

itself. The pulling grip must also protect the

connectors from abrasion and damage. In

medium fiber counts (6 to 24 fibers) the

connectors must be staggered when installed to

reduce the diameter of the pulling grip. In high-

fiber counts (greater than 24 fibers), installation

of a connectorized cable may not be possible

due to the conduit size that would be required.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

Prior to installation

All optical fiber cables are tested before leaving

our manufacturing plant. Before installing the

cable, we recommend testing the cable on the

reel for continuity. This is to ensure that no

damage occurred during shipment. Since the

cost of installation is usually higher than the cost

of materials, testing the fibers before installation

can avoid unnecessary additional expenses

and help meeting important deadlines. At a

minimum, continuity testing can be done on the

reel with a visual fault locator or a simple fiber

tracer such as a flashlight, a modified flashlight

to properly hold the fibers, a microscope or a

bright red light (LED lookalike). With this simple

test, you should be able to identify broken fibers,

if any, within the optical fiber cable.

Also, it is recommended to double-check the

actual fiber count and the actual cable length, to

avoid any inconvenience.

It is preferable to use Velcro wraps instead of

tie-wraps. Remember not to distort the shape of

the cable, as this adds pressure onto the optical

fibers and may affect performance.

Fiber optic cables can be installed in

innerducts. The use of innerducts tends to

reduce the pulling tension required. Ensure that

the properly rated innerduct is being installed.

A 3 to 6 m (10 to 20 ft) of cable slack should

be stored in enclosure or on the wall to allow

repairs and/or relocation needs.

Installation in Temperatures Below Freezing

The minimum installation temperature for

plenum cables is 0° C (32° F). If the cable has to

be installed when the temperature is below 32°F

the following precautions should be taken to

ensure that the jacket will not crack:

• Store the cable in a heated area whose

temperature is above 50° F for 24 hours

before installation.

•Transfer only enough cable to the job site for 4

hours work. The cable will retain enough heat

to prevent cracking. Cable that has not been

installed after 4 hours should be returned to a

heated area.

• Coil service loops in 10” to 12” loops. A tight

coil could cause the cable to crack.

• Normally the cables are terminated after the

site is enclosed and heated. Do not attempt to

terminate the cables when the temperature is

below freezing.

OUTSIDE PLANT CABLE INSTALLATION

General

Protect exposed cables from vehicular and

public traffic.

Underground Installation

For underground installation, center pull long

cables. Store excess cable in vaults and manholes,

and identify optical cables with markers.

Aerial Installation

Use proper hardware matching cable, span and

tension requirements. Use correct cable jacket.

Buried Cable Installations

Identify cable locations with surface markers.

Anticipate obstructions.

Administration

A unique identifier shall be assigned to each

backbone cable and shall be marked on each

end. Reference should be made as per the

ANSI/TIA/EIA-606-A standard.

TERMINATION

General

Before termination, the cable should be properly

secured to provide a tension-free length of fiber.

When splicing fibers, mechanical or fusion, a

splice tray is needed to properly store the

completed splices. If connectors are to be used,

trays or shelves should be used to support the

fiber behind the connector. Proper strain relief

sleeves provided with the connectors should

always be used to prevent excessive bending of

fiber. No shelf is necessary if terminating a

breakout style cable with connectors.

CABLE PREPARATION FOR THE

TERMINATION

General

It is acceptable to directly terminate the 900 µm

tight buffer from a distribution cable with a

connector, if the above precautions are taken. It

can be acceptable to directly terminate the 250

µm coated fiber from a loose buffer tube with a

connector in certain applications. However, it is

usually recommended to use a breakout kit

which converts a six or twelve fiber loose buffer

tube to a six or twelve fiber 900 µm distribution

style ready for termination.

If outside plant cables are used, the gel

flooding material needs to be cleaned with the

appropriate solvent (please consult the cable

manufacturer for recommendation on the choice

of solvent). The more thorough the cleaning, the

easier the termination procedure will be.

Cable preparation

To prepare the cable for termination, the outer

jacket must be properly stripped. Two ring cuts

should be made in the jacket; one about 2” from

the end and the second at the point where the

jacket is to be removed. Care must be taken not

to cut all the way through the jacket and into the

core. The 2” piece is removed from the end of

the cable exposing the core and the aramid

ripcord. Make a notch in the jacket alongside

the ripcord (do not cut the ripcord!). Pull the

ripcord with a needle-nose pliers, or similar,

until it reaches the second ring cut. Remove the

core from the sliced jacket and pull the jacket to

tear it at the ring cut.

Once the fiber optic cable is ready for

termination, follow the termination installation

instructions.

TESTING

General

Once the cable plant is installed and terminated,

it is recommended to test the fiber optic

segment. The testing should be done according

to TIA TSB-140. This document provides

guidelines for field-testing length, loss and

polarity of a completed fiber optic link.

It is necessary to perform an end-to-end

attenuation test to verify the quality of

installations and to ensure high quality system

performance. The best way to verify whether an

end-to-end link meets the link loss budget is to

divide the end-to-end link into segments at each

cross-connect and measure the attenuation of

each link segment. In order for the system to

operate properly, the sum of the attenuation for

the multiple link segments that form an end-to-

end link must be less than the link loss budget

calculated in the design phase.

Test equipment

Various types of testing equipment are available

on the market, such as Optical Loss Test Set

(OLTS), Visual Fault Locator (VFL) sets or the

Optical Time Domain Reflectometer. For

troubleshooting, the OTDR is recommended.

Optical Loss Test Set (OLTS)

The OLTS consists of a light source and an

optical power meter. The main function of this

equipment is to measure the optical power or

loss.

Visual Fault Locator (VFL) or tracer

The VFL is a red laser source; the tracer is an

LED source. Either instrument can be used to

trace fibers and troubleshoot faults on optical

fiber cables. The main function of this

equipment is to check continuity of the fiber,

as well as to identify fibers and connectors in

patch panels or outlets.

Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR)

The OTDR is a more sophisticated

measurement instrument. It uses a technology

that injects a series of optical pulses into the

fiber under test and analyzes the light scattering

and the light reflection. This allows the

instrument to measure the intensity of the return

pulse in functions of time and fiber length. The

OTDR is used to measure the optical power loss

and the fiber length, as well as to locate all

faults resulting from fiber breaks, splices or

connectors.

Fiber testing guidelines

The following testing guidelines promote

efficient and accurate testing:

• Clean all connections and adapters at the optical

test points prior to taking measurements, as per

ANSI/TIA/EIA-526-14A.

•The light source or OTDR (Optical Time Domain

Reflectometer) must operate within the range of

850 ± 30 nm, or 1300 ± 20 nm for multimode

testing.

• Test jumpers must be of the same fiber core size,

performance and connector type as the cable

system (e.g., 50/125 µm jumpers for a 50/125

µm optical fiber system) and shall be one to five

meters long.

ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.1 is the recommended test

method.

Every reel of fiber optic cable shipped from

Mohawk has a test report attached showing the

attenuation of all the fibers in the cable. Typical

values for a multimode cable are 2.7 dB/km

when measured at 850 nm and 0.7 dB/km

when measured at 1300 nm. Therefore, for a

run of 100 meters (328 feet), the typical cable

attenuation is only 0.27 dB at 850 nm and

0.07 dB at 1300 nm.

Most fiber optic connectors are specified

as having an insertion loss of less than 0.5 dB.

Since there are two connections for

each fiber, up to 1 dB of attenuation can be

expected to be added to the installed cable.

As the cable runs get shorter, the cable

attenuation becomes lower, but the connector

insertion loss remains the same. If the cable

is installed properly, most of the measured

attenuation will come from the connectors.

If several fibers off of the same cable show

high attenuation, or if a single fiber attenuation

remains high after retermination, an OTDR

should be used to isolate the problem. An OTDR

is an excellent tool for troubleshooting a failing

link by identifying the location of the faulty

component.

Technical

Advisory Fiber Optic Cables

Tight Buffer for Outdoor Considerations

There are two standard types of fiber optic cables for

data/voice communications: tight buffered and loose

tube. As a rule, tight buffered cables are used indoors

(intrabuilding, premise) and loose tube cables are

used outdoors (interbuilding, outside plant).

Loose tube cables should be utilized in outside plant

installations whenever possible, due to their long history

with the various telephone companies, superior UV

resistance, and exceptional resistance to moisture.

Many studies have shown that the long term reliability

of optical fiber is highest when the fiber is contained

in a loose tube design. Loose tube cables may be

ordered in a “dry block” version for easier termina-

tion, thus avoiding the gel flooding which some con-

sider to be a problem.

Tight buffered cables utilize a 900 µm buffer over each

individual fiber to provide ease of handling and a

color code. These cables typically have a flame retar-

dant jacket, such as PVC, in order to meet the code

requirements necessary for installation in a building.

The combination of the tight buffers with the PVC

jacket results in a flexible design that is easy to work

with. When used in an outdoor environment, a tight

buffer cannot provide the same level of protection to

the optical fiber as a loose tube.

RiserLite®cables are designed to bridge the gap

between standard loose tube and tight buffered

cables. RiserLite cables are gel-filled, “dry blocked”

loose tube cables which allow them to be installed in

outdoor applications. They also have a UL OFNR and

c(UL) OFN FT4 rating, which allows them to be

installed in the building riser, as well.

Many installers prefer to use tight buffered cables in

the outside plant because of the relative ease of ter-

mination. If tight buffered cable is to be used in an

outside environment, then special care must be

taken. The cable must not be installed in aerial

lashed, self-support, or direct buried applications.

The cable must be installed below the frost line and in

a “dry” conduit. As an alternative, a product from

American Polywater (www.polywater.com) called

“IceFree” can help keep the conduit dry and prevent

water from freezing and damaging the fiber. Proper

pulling techniques must also be followed, as tight

buffered cables typically have lower pulling tensions

than loose tube cables.

MAC

Certification MAC Warranty Program

MAC Warranty Program

Several years ago Mohawk developed a standards

based BiCSi accredited training program. This pro-

gram is geared primarily towards contractors, but is

also offered to consultants and end-users. After suc-

cessfully completing the training program the individ-

ual is eligible to receive 7 BiCSi credits.

There are two options available to become a Mohawk

Accredited Contractor (MAC). First, you may elect to

be trained by one of Mohawk’s on staff RCDD instruc-

tors. This would enable you to be eligible to receive

the 7 BiCSi credits. Second, you may choose to be

grandfathered into the MAC program by having suc-

cessfully completed an approved training program

offered by one of our connectivity partners.

The major benefit of being a MAC is to enable the

contractor to offer an extended warranty to the end-

user on Mohawk products.

The Mohawk ChannelMATE®Cabling System

Warranty period offered by a MAC is from 15 years to

lifetime. It encompasses Mohawk’s copper products

from Category 5e through Augmented Category 6,

including high pair count cables, copper backbone,

and all fiber optic cables.

Additional benefits of being a MAC contractor

include the backing of Mohawk’s comprehensive

technical support group for product information,

installation troubleshooting and industry updates on

the latest standards and applications guidelines.

MAC contractors may also be eligible for a product

rebate based on their qualified purchases. All backed

by the strength of Belden’s financial and managerial

resources.
