City of Sunny Isles Beach |Request for Proposal No. 22-04-01 38 All cases shall be sized to accommodate cable sizes that are housed in the splice case. Contractor shall include splice trays, label all fiber coming in and out of splice case, and protect each fusion splice with heat shrink protectors. 4.5 Photos Contractor shall take a photo of each splice tray and document as part of the deliverables with the test results. All photos shall be labeled with location, date, tech name, company and description of the completed splice. 4.6 Fiber-Optic Cable Termination Assemblies Cable termination assemblies (connectors, pigtails and couplers) shall be products of the same manufacturer. The cable used for cable assemblies shall be made of fiber meeting the performance requirements of these special conditions for the F/O cable being connected, except that the operating temperature shall be modified to -20°C to +70°C. Manufacturer’s attenuation test results shall be provided for all cable assemblies. 4.7 Optical Fiber Connectors All optical fiber termination components shall meet or exceed the applicable provisions of TIA/EIA-455-B, Standard Test Procedure for Fiber-Optic Fibers, Cables, Transducers, Sensors, Connecting and Terminating Devices, and Other Fiber-Optic Components. All optical fiber connectors shall be of industry standard LC Angled polished APC, type for single-mode optical fiber and shall meet or exceed the applicable provisions of TIA/EIA-455-2C (FOTP-2), Impact Test Measurements for Fiber-Optic Devices, TIA/EIA-455-5B (FOTP-5), Humidity Test Procedure for Fiber-Optic Components, and TIA/EIA-455-34A (FOTP-34), Interconnection Device Insertion Loss Test. When tested in accordance with FOTP –2, the connector assembly will be subjected to ten impact cycles by being dropped from a height of 1.5 m. The maximum insertion loss measured before and after the impacts shall be < 0.50 dB. The mean insertion loss of the before and after impacts shall be < 0.30 dB. The insertion loss increase measured before and after the impacts shall be < 0.30 dB. The maximum reflectance measured before and after the impacts shall be < - 40 dB. When tested in accordance with FOTP – 5, the connector assembly will be subjected to test conditions of 75 °C and 95% relative humidity for 7 days. Measurements of loss and reflectance will be made at the beginning of the test, at a minimum of six-hour intervals during the test, and at the end of the test. The maximum insertion loss measured before, during or after the test shall be < 0.50 dB. The mean insertion loss of the before, during or after the test shall be < 0.30 dB. The insertion loss increase measured before, during or after the test shall be < 0.30 dB. The maximum reflectance measured before, during or after the test shall be < - 40 dB.
