4.2.12.2.4 Installing Cable Accessories
Precautions for Installing Cable Accessories
The illustrations in this document may dier from actual situations, but the installation
methods are the same. For example, in this document, the adapters of cable connectors
have separate interfaces. In the actual situation, the adapters may have interfaces
xed on
equipment.
Tools
Use dedicated tools provided or specied by Huawei and follow the installation
procedure described here.
Bending Radius
Unless otherwise
specied, bending radius (R) of cables or bers must meet the
requirements listed in Table 4-77.
Table 4-77 Bending radius of cables or bers
Cable or Fiber
Bending Radius (R)
Ordinary cable In normal cases, R ≥ 2d. When the
cable is connected with a connector, R
≥ 5d.
Fiber Single-mode G.657A2 optical ber: R ≥
10 mm (0.39 in.), bending angle > 90°
Multi-mode A1b optical ber: 30 mm
(1.18 in.) ≤ R ≤ 40 mm (1.57 in.),
bending angle > 90°
The letter d indicates the diameter of a cable or ber.
Precautions for Installation
● Hold terminals of cables instead of pulling the cables themselves when
installing or removing cable components.
● Do not insert a connector forcibly when the connector is blocked. Use a
dedicated tool to pull out the connector. Install the connector again after you
check that the pins are inserted properly.
● Before tightening screws on cable connectors, ensure that the connectors are
properly connected to their adapters. Tighten the screw with appropriate force
using a
at-head or Phillips screwdriver instead of bare hands or an electric
screwdriver. If the screw cannot be screwed into the tapped hole, determine
