Installation of optical cables in ducts

by Willem Griffioen ...

This book describes and compares several methods for installing cables in ducts. In the past pulling was the most popular technique, but the relatively low weight of optical cables has stimulated the development of several new techniques. The blowing technique is perhaps the most well known of these new techniques. Experimental work yielded insight into both blowing and pulling techniques. It was ... Read more
