Summary:
|
This Recommendation describes the solutions for indoor and/or outdoor installation of microducts in different conditions: directly into the trench, existing pipes, aerial applications, access to buildings. There is broad interest in this technology by telecommunication installation companies and operators for the deployment of the optical networks, because it helps in the reutilization and optimization of the space inside existing pipes (e.g. large ducts), as well as minimization of the civil works, the social impact and the cost of the plant. The same technology approach may be utilized for new microduct plant installations.
These solutions can be applied in all segments of the telecommunications networks when existing infrastructure is available for reuse or when it is necessary to create a new infrastructure.
The required solution of microducts may differ according to the dimensions and the conditions of existing pipes and the dimensions of microcables to be laid.
