Rules to Follow for Fiber Optic Cable Installation:
 Avoid end face contamination
Leave the protective caps on until you are ready to plug it into the 
equipment. Prior to plugging it in, inspect the end face, clean and 
repeat if necessary.

 Don’t pull too hard on the cable
If the cable is too short, don’t try to stretch it! It may seem pretty obvious, 
but pulling will probably lead to a break in the fiber optic cable or 
connector. Don not crush the cable and avoid any impacts on it.

 Don’t bend or kink fiber cables
There is a term called “bend radius” and each brand of fiber optic cables will have 
a different measurement to follow.
 Do not pinch the fiber
Pinching the fiber optic cable can squeeze the glass and ruin performance. Don’t 
use zip-ties, use Velcro. Monitor tensile loading during pulls, and avoid pulling 
long lengths in one direction. Plan to install extra cable protection in high-risk 
areas.
