This book deals specifically with the design, manufacturing, installation and operational aspects. Where "pure" theory is used, for example in the account of transmission parameters it is dealt with fully and straight-forwardly. On the applications side the chapter on installation includes not only practical coverage of cable jointing and suspension, but also unique material about protecting cable from termites and rodents. A full account of the development and performance characteristics of optical fibres is also included in chapter 14.

From the Back Cover
Telecommunications Cables Design, Manufacture and Installation Harold Hughes At last! a practical, end-to-end survey of transmission lines and optical fibres from design to installation. Drawing from a wealth of first-hand experience of cable design, construction and emplacement, the author provides a working assessment of the development and performance characteristics of optical fibres, and metal or alloy cables. An instant reference on cable design, manufacture, development and operation, this essential handbook includes:
* Methodologies, examples and measurements to show the realisable design accuracy, transmission and crosstalk parameters of leading types of transmission cable
* Practical solutions to mechanical strain, the effects of extreme climatic conditions, earthing lightning storms, and rodent and insect damage
* Details of how to maximise the durability of optical fibres
A one-stop account of cable design and development for cable manufacturing engineers and civil engineers involved in telecommunications network installation and development.
