Full Description
Scope
This standard covers the construction, mechanical and electrical performance, test requirements, environmental considerations, and acceptance criteria for qualifying hardware for use with all-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS) fiber optic cable.
Purpose
The purpose of this standard is to establish performance and testing specifications for hardware used on ADSS systems in order to standardize testing, simplify procurement specifications, and assure product quality.
Abstract
New IEEE Standard - Unapproved Draft.Hardware performance, test requirements, procedures, and acceptance criteria for an all dielectric self supporting overhead cable with optical fibers are covered. Functional requirements, such as electrical, mechanical, optical fiber, environmental and test requirements related to design, installation, in-service, and maintenance, including routine tests, are covered.
