How to manage fiber patch cords

Time:2022-06-24 Views:


According to the factors that affect the performance and protection of optical fiber patch cords, we can get the following 6 ways to improve the coordination and system reliability of optical fiber patch cord management:

1. Pay attention to the bending radius of the fiber jumper. Generally speaking, the bending radius that can be carried by fiber jumpers with diameters of 1.6mm and 3.0mm cannot be less than 3.5cm, and the bending radius that MPO fiber jumpers can carry cannot be less than 10 times its diameter.

2. There is no need to involve or squeeze the fiber jumper. When installing a fiber optic patch cord, excessive force may put pressure on the fiber optic patch cord and the RF connectors on both sides, thereby interfering with its performance. In particular, if you have to apply a relatively large amount of force to pull a fiber patch cord, then there may be some problems in between.

3. Route the jumper according to the path of the fiber jumper. If the current jumper length is in line with the current application, you can use this jumper repeatedly, but you still have to take this jumper out of the fiber optic distribution frame, and then reinstall it according to the new path. root jumper. This is also the only way to ensure that the jumper wires are not kinked, bent, or stretched and pinched. In order to better router patch cords, you should find a suitable path for patch cords between multiple interfaces, and at the same time prevent patch cords from coiling around each other and crowding.

4. Bundled or tied fiber optic patch cords can make the control panel look clean and tidy. However, bundled or tied fiber optic patch cords too tightly will increase the risk of excessive compression. To prevent this problem, you can moderately "release" the fiber optic patch cord so that the fiber optic patch cord can move freely.

5. Labeling is a very important job and one of the most important jobs for application system administrators. It is necessary to properly label all management points (including the cabling control panel) in the construction of the cabling infrastructure, so that the Internet technicians can precisely find the starting point and the end point of the fiber optic cable.

6. Check whether the optical fiber jumper has physical damage, including imprinting and RF connector damage caused by sudden bending of the grommet.

Strengthening the management of optical fiber jumpers can not only improve the stability and flexibility of the optical fiber network system, but also reduce the operation and maintenance costs of the optical fiber network. The bending radius of the metal, the path of the fiber optic patch cord, the accessibility of the fiber optic patch cord and the physical maintenance of the fiber optic patch cord are the primary factors that affect the management of the fiber optic patch cord. When managing fiber optic patch cords, if you can achieve these four points, then you are halfway there.
