Fiber install guidelines

In order to avoid problems like this at Grand st., the following guidelines should be followed when doing new fiber work:

  • Boxes should be located near floor or with long enough winder boxes to enable work on the floor.
    • No ladders should be necessary for maintenance/splicing.
  • Cable should not be jammed in distribution boxes.
  • All cables/ports should be labeled.
  • All work should be centrally documented (Mesh or contractors).
  • All fibers in a cable should be terminated initially.   Never leave cablesfibers unterminated.
