6、munication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tari
7、ff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recomme
8、ndations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommend

ITU-T L.92 (10/2012) Introduction Recently, natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods have occurred more frequently. Outside plant facilities such as manholes a
18、nd poles are occasionally damaged by these disasters, and as a result, telecommunication services stop.

32、-T L.92 (10/2012) 3 6.2 Disaster management Disaster management activities can be grouped into four phases as follows: Mitigation (prevention): activities that actually eliminate or reduce the probability of a disaster. Preparedness: activities prior to disasters that are used to support the prevent
33、ion of, mitigation of, response to, and recovery from disasters. In this phase, plans are developed to save lives and minimize disaster damage (for example, installing early warning systems). Response: activities following a disaster. These activities are designed to stabilize the situation and to r
34、educe the probability of secondary damage. Recovery: activities necessary to return all systems to normal or better (for example, rebuilding destroyed property, or the repair of other essential infrastructure). 6.3 IPOCM Incident preparedness and operational continuity management (IPOCM) provides a
35、basis for understanding, developing and implementing incident preparedness and operational continuity within an organization. This is a tool to allow public or private organizations to consider the factors and steps necessary to prepare for an unintentionally, intentionally, or naturally caused inci
36、dent (disruption, emergency, crisis or disaster) so that it can manage and survive the incident and take the appropriate actions to help ensure the organizations continued viability.

ITU-T L.92 (10/2012) 7 Technical considerations 7.1 Introduction The objective of this Recommendation is to provide technical considerations when deploying outside plant facilities. These wi
38、ll include design criteria and standard methods that have been already described in other Recommendations or ITU-T handbooks or manuals. 7.2 Earthquakes 7.2.1 General Outside plant facilities may be damaged during earthquakes. Telecommunication services may be lost because of damage to a central off
39、ice, underground conduits and overhead cables. Therefore, seismic design standards for outside plant facilities are needed to improve their earthquake performance. In addition, it is necessary to perform an initial evaluation of the earthquake hazard and outside plant facilities vulnerability. 7.2.2
40、 Cables Telecommunication cables are an important part of the infrastructure and they have to meet a set of requirements. These requirements are intended to protect the cables from the hostile outside plant environment, which includes earthquakes. It is recommended that cables should have good seism
41、ic performance. It is desirable that cables have enough length at manholes so as not to be cut due to ground settlement by earthquakes. 7.2.3 Poles Poles have several failure modes: falling, sinking and breaking. Poles fall to the ground when the bearing capacity of foundation is weak. In liquefied
42、soils, poles sink into the soil. Poles can also be broken at the weakest point. The failure of the pole is attributed to ground motions or to being pulled over when an adjacent pole fails. Appropriate countermeasures should be applied according to these failure modes. 7.2.4 Towers Towers are lattice
43、 steel structures which are used to support telecommunication cables. The design criteria for towers include both seismic and wind loads, but wind loads usually control the design. Earthquake resistance design for towers can be substituted by wind resistance design, if the wind load is proved to be
44、greater than the earthquake load. On building supported towers, however, the dynamic amplification introduced by the building should be evaluated. Though wind loads usually control tower design, earthquake performance evaluation is explicitly considered. 7.2.5 Manholes, hand-holes and conduits Manho
45、les, hand-holes and conduits are critical components of outside plant facilities. Manholes, hand-holes and conduits are usually damaged during earthquakes. When a conduit is damaged, water can penetrate the closure and small flaws in cables will eventually allow water to enter and degrade cable perf
46、ormance. Manholes are damaged when soil liquefaction occurs. The soil around the manhole liquefies and loses its shear strength, and as a result, the manhole can sink or float, breaking conduits connected to the manhole. 7.2.6 Cable tunnels There are two types of cable tunnels: open cut box cable tu
47、nnel and shield/NATM/TBM cable tunnel. Typically, cable tunnels have a higher reliability due to their higher rigidity compared with buried conduits. A shield tunnel has a higher reliability due to its deep construction compared with an open cut cable tunnel, because it is not affected by liquefacti
48、on and subsidence. Rec. ITU-T L.92 (10/2012) 5 7.3 Tsunami A tsunami consists of a series of sea waves and is usually caused by a massive submarine earthquake. Central offices and outside plant facilities in coastal areas may suffer serious damage. It takes a long time to repair damaged telecommunic
49、ation services at central offices due to the wide variety of specialized equipment typically installed there. There is a need to design alternate trunk cable routes that can be used to sustain telecommunication services when a large portion of the trunk network is degraded. In addition, it is important to prevent water damage in manholes, hand-holes and cable tunnels and to prevent water damage to the power supplies of buildings and to have backup power supplies available for use during power supply failures. 7.4 Floods Outside pl
