Exceeding a fiber optic cable's maximum pulling tension permanently damages aramid strength members and induces microbends that increase link loss. This guide covers tension limits by cable type, proper pulling grip attachment, compatible lubricants, and installation. Fiber optic cable is surprisingly strong, durable and pliable; however, several best practices should be followed to ensure a successful cable installation. The below article explores the best practices and tools commonly used to pull fiber optic cable. Most fiber damage does not come from normal operation after the system is live. Many installers pull fiber by the outer jacket which is prone to. Even though fiber-optic cable is advertised as being more robust than Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair copper cable, pulling it in horizontal cable runs in premises applications requires some special considerations. These considerations are familiar to installers who specialize in optical fiber. Note: Since it is optical fiber, there is no problem with electrical interference. Try new methods like air blowing.
