Check Item |
|---|---|
1 |
Labels are correctly attached to cables. |
2 |
Cables that pass the cable ladder are secured on the beam of the cable ladder. |
3 |
Cable troughs are used for cables laid outside a bay, and these cables are in the cable troughs. |
4 |
Ground cables of a bay are connected correctly and reliably. |
5 |
Do not tightly bind the external power cables and ground cables. Separately deploy them with at least 150-mm space in between. Also, separately deploy these two types of cables from the signal cables with at least 30-mm in between. |
6 |
Cables are laid out in an untangled and orderly fashion. |
7 |
Cables are bound in a rectangular shape (Single-core cables can be bound in a round shape). |
8 |
Cables are bent at a radius larger than 60 mm. Cable ties are not installed where a cable bends. |
9 |
Cable ties are properly installed at equal spacing and in the same direction. The excess of cable ties is trimmed off without remaining rough edges. |
10 |
Optical fibers do not have unnatural bends and squeezes. |
11 |
The bending radius of optical fibers is equal to or larger than 50 mm. |
