Cable installation by using high speed air flow combined with additional mechanical pushing force is called as "blowing or jetting". Installing air-blown fiber optic cable via a jetting machine doesn't need to be a complicated process. In this how-to video, we show you the tools and techniques you'll need to properly blow and install fiber optic cable.

More than five hundred meters of 24-pair fiber optic cables from Angola Telecom were vandalized, last weekend, on section 105 between the city of Ondjiva and the municipality of Ombadja, province of Cunene, by unknown individuals. According to fibre optic cable operators, the landslide cut the West Africa Cable System (WACS) and SAT-3, two submarine cables that together serve around 20 countries over thousands of kilometres. There are also concerns that it could take a month before the cables are repaired. This is because both public and private organisations have made major investments in the past ten years.

This guide explains the latest EIA/TIA-598-D fiber color-coding standard used to identify fiber types, inner fiber sequences, and connector polish styles. With clear tables and updated details, it serves as a comprehensive reference for technicians handling modern fiber optic. There are six fundamental colors in the visible spectrum – These are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. When we see a rainbow, we are seeing these principal spectral colors and from these colors come all other colors that we see with our eyes. These codes ensure correct organization and connectivity during installation or maintenance processes.
