163 describes criteria for the installation of optical fibre cables defined in Recommendation ITU-T L. (FOA) was founded in 1995 to help develop the workforce to build the fiber optic networks to support a rapid expansion in communications and the Internet. Racking space should be carefully chosen so that it will provide maximum bend radius. Fiber optic network design involves the planning, routing, and drafting of Fiber cable layouts to support high-speed data transmission. It includes detailed mapping of backbone, distribution, and drop connections for FTTH, FTTP, FTTx, and enterprise networks.
