ITU-T L.26 (08/2015) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies

7、(ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunicat

8、ion Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of in

9、formation technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating a

10、gency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or s

11、ome other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTSITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or

12、 implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development p

13、rocess. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation.

39、commendation This Recommendation defines the following terms: 3.2.1 all-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS): Cable in which the tensile element is provided by a non-metallic reinforcement (e.g., aramid yarns, glass-fibre-reinforced materials or equivalent dielectric strength members) placed under or w

40、ithin the plastic sheath; the outer shape is circular. 3.2.2 differential movement of cable components: The relative movement of various elements of the cable to one another. This movement can either be reversible or irreversible. It can be induced by temperature or tension variation. An example of

41、this is fibre grow-out, in which individual fibres begin to protrude from the end of the cable sheath. 3.2.3 lashed cable on messenger wire: Non-metallic or armoured cables installed on a separate suspension catenary and held in position with a binder cord or special preformed spiral clips. 3.2.4 ma

42、ximum allowable tension: The maximum tensile load that may be applied to the cable without detriment to the tensile performance requirement (optical performance, fibre strain). 3.2.5 rated tensile strength: Summation of the product of nominal cross-sectional area, minimum tensile strength and strand

43、ing factor for each load-bearing material in the cable construction. 3.2.6 self-supporting cable: Cable in which the sheath includes a metallic or non-metallic bearing element(s), most commonly forming a figure 8. 3.2.7 strain margin: The amount of strain the cable can sustain without strain on the

44、fibres due to cable elongation. 4 Abbreviations and acronyms This Recommendation uses the following abbreviations and acronyms: ADSS All-Dielectric Self-Supporting MASS Metal Armour Self-Supporting OPAC Optical Attached Cable OPGW Optical Ground Wire 4 Rec.

46、istics The typical transmission characteristics for each type of optical fibre are described in their respective Recommendation. Unless specified otherwise by the users of the Recommendation, those values apply to the corresponding cabled optical fibre. 6.1.2 Fibre microbending Severe bending of an

47、optical fibre involving local axial displacement of a few micrometres over short distances, caused by localized lateral forces along its length, is called microbending. This may be caused by manufacturing and installation strains or by dimensional variations of cable materials due to temperature cha

48、nges during operation. Microbending can cause an increase in optical loss. In order to reduce microbending loss, stress randomly applied to a fibre along its axis should be eliminated during the incorporation of the fibres into the cable, as well as during and after cable installation. 6.1.3 Fibre m

49、acrobending Macrobending is the resulting curvature of an optical fibre, which is large relative to the fibre diameter, after cable manufacture and installation. Macrobending can cause an increase in optical loss. The optical loss increases inversely to the bending radius of the fibre; the macrobending should not be severe enough to significantly increase the opt
