38、s Standard covers optical fiber communications cables intended for use in outdoor and/or indoor/outdoor optical fiber drop applications. Materials, construction, and performance requirements are included in this Standard, together with applicable test procedures. Optical fiber communications cables

39、within the scope of Multiple Dwelling Unit (MDU) applications, as defined by ICEA S-115-730, may include specific types of drop cables. For these MDU drop cables, the requirements of S-730 supersede the requirements of this Standard, except by agreement between manufacturer and user. Refer to other

40、published ICEA cable product Standards for information for optical fiber cable requirements for other applications: S-104-696 (ANSI/TIA-472C000-B) for optical fiber communications cables intended for use in other combined indoor/outdoor applications, S-87-640 (to be TIA-472D000-C) for optical fiber

41、communication cables intended for use in other outdoor applications, S-83-596 (TIA-472C000-C) for optical fiber communications cables intended only for indoor use, and S-112-718 for optical fiber cable for placement in sewers. S-115-730 for optical fiber cable for multiple-dwelling units. 1.1.2 Appl

42、ication Space Products covered by this Standard are intended for operation under conditions normally encountered in the last portion of all-optical networks. This space exists from the Network Access Point (NAP) which is typically the access point into the distribution network, or other hardware ser

43、ving that purpose, ending at or inside the subscriber premises. These products convey communications signals (voice, video, and data) between the communications network and the subscriber ANSI/ICEA S-110-717-2013 2 premises. Products covered by this Standard may be factory-terminated with connectors

44、 or other telecommunications hardware as appropriate. Products covered by this Standard may be designed for aerial installationeither self-supporting or lashed to messengers or other cables. These products may be designed to be installed undergrounddirect buried, trenched, or installed in ducts by a

45、ny of a number of methods. When a hybrid cable (a cable with both optical fibers and metallic conductors) is required, the applicable metallic conductor requirements shall be as established by agreement between the end user and the cable manufacturer. The requirements of ICEA S-84-608, the filled OS

46、P copper cable standard, should be considered when determining appropriate requirements. For the purposes of this standard, user premises are defined as residential properties and small to medium sized businesses located in facilities that can be served by an optical cable having 12 or fewer fibers,

47、 with typical distances less than or equal to 100 m in length. Most applications will only require cables with four or fewer fibers. Fiber counts higher than 12 are allowed. Products covered by this Standard are not intended for use in extended distance applications, which are typically characterize

48、d by higher fiber count cables and which specify more stringent design and performance requirements. The suitability of products covered by this Standard in applications other than those for which they are intended should be as agreed upon between the manufacturer and user. 1.1.3 Temperature Ranges

49、The normal temperature ranges for cables covered by this Standard are listed in Table 1-1. Table 1-1 Cable Normal Temperature Ranges Outdoor Cable Indoor/Outdoor Cable (fire-resistant) C (F) C (F) Operation -40 to +70 (-40 to +158) -40 to +70 (-40 to +158) Storage and Shipping -40 to +70 (-40 to +158) -40 to +70 (-40 to +158) Installation -30 to +60 (-22 to +140) -10 to +60 (+14 to +140) 1.1.4 Tensile Rating For the purposes of this document, the standard tensile rating represe
