The cover of all new fiber optic distributions (FODPs) shall be labeled to conform to the system used by local maintenance personnel to identify FODPs that terminate fiber. If the manufacturer has not identified the sequence in which ports on FODPs (pigtail modules) are counted, the Contractor shall provide designation labels/strips to identify the sequence in which they are counted. Each splice tray shall be marked to identify the fiber count contained in the splice tray. The marking shall identify the FODP by number (building number), cable number, and count.

Cable Splicing All splicing shall be performed in accordance with RUS Bulletin 1735F‐401, Standards for Splicing Copper and Fiber Cable. The contractor shall use pic‐a‐bonds, 3M 710 splice connectors, or equivalent, for all copper splices.

Label Label patch panels, distribution panels, connector blocks and protection modules using color coded labels with identifiers in accordance with TIA‐606.

Testing The Contractor shall conduct on‐site testing IAW OEM’s installation manuals, practices and the appropriate vendor’s test procedures. The Contractor shall furnish all test equipment and personnel required to conduct all required testing.

Fiber Optic Tests. All strands of all fiber optic cables shall be tested in accordance with TIA 526‐7, Measurement of Optical Power Loss of Installed Single‐mode Fiber Cable Plant, or equivalent.

Optical Attenuation. End to end attenuation tests shall be conducted on all fiber optic cable strands.

Tests shall be accomplished to ensure the installed cable is within the specified parameters.
