Communication optical cables are laid in the same trench as ducts
155 describes this trenching technique, which allows the easy installation, in narrow trenches, of underground optical cables and mini-cables in ducts or mini-ducts or directly buried. It forms a critical backbone for modern communication networks across both urban and rural environments. When laying in the same ditch, they should be arranged in parallel without overlapping or crossing. The parallel clear distance between cables should be ≥ 100mm. In extreme cold climates, cables may need to be buried at greater depths where there temperatures are colder and frost penetrates to. With the miniaturization of the telecommunication infrastructure, i., with mini-ducts and mini-cables, it has been...
