Description

The purpose of this document is to establish a national standard that
defines the location of
installed outside fiber optic cable plant relative to its physical
environment, including related
protective measures necessary to reduce the probability of cable
damage.

The Standard addresses fiber optic cables that are directly buried,
placed in duct, in
non-navigable waterways, or in transition from underground to aerial
structures. It further
specifies the location-marking and physical and operational protection
of such cables.

This Standard does not address installation methods or existing cable
plant, nor does it cover
aerial, building, and submarine cables, or cables placed in navigable
waterways.
