Abstract
An object of the present disclosure is to provide a method of laying an optical cable that is capable of laying and removing the optical cable in a stable place without civil engineering works. To achieve the above-mentioned object, a method of laying an optical cable according to the present disclosure includes laying the optical cable and two laying strips on a road surface or a wall surface so that the optical cable is sandwiched between side surfaces of the two laying strips.
Claims4
A method of laying an optical cable, the method comprising
- laying the optical cable and two laying strips on a road surface or a wall surface so that the optical cable is sandwiched between side surfaces of the two laying strips;
- and
- taking a preventive measure to prevent a distance between the side surfaces of the two laying strips facing each other from being enlarged, wherein taking the preventive measure is, with the side surfaces of the two laying strips between which the optical cable is sandwiched facing each other, engaging respective concave-convex shaped portions, apart from portions in contact with the optical cable, included in the side surfaces of the two laying strips.
A method of laying an optical cable, the method comprising laying the optical cable and two laying strips on a road surface or a wall surface so that the optical cable is sandwiched between side surfaces of the two laying strips, wherein, in laying the laying strips,
- a part of the laying strips is cut out to form a space for accommodating a connection unit of the optical cable, and
- a tray, in which the connection unit is to be arranged, is provided at a bottom of the space, and
- wherein, in laying the optical cable,
- the optical cable is introduced into the tray and the connection unit is formed, and
- the connection unit is accommodated in the tray, and an open side of the space is then covered with a lid.
A method of laying an optical cable, the method comprising
- laying the optical cable and two laying strips on a road surface or a wall surface so that the optical cable is sandwiched between side surfaces of the two laying strips, wherein a space for accommodating a connection unit of the optical cable is formed in advance in the laying strips,
- wherein, in laying the laying strips,
- a tray, in which the connection unit is to be arranged, is provided at a bottom of the space, and
- wherein, in laying the optical cable,
- the optical cable is introduced into the tray and the connection unit is formed, and
- the connection unit is accommodated in the tray, and an open side of the space is then covered with a lid.
A method of laying an optical cable, the method comprising
- laying the optical cable and two laying strips on a road surface or a wall surface so that the optical cable is sandwiched between side surfaces of the two laying strips, wherein the laying strips have a perforated line to form a space for accommodating a connection unit of the optical cable,
- wherein, in laying the laying strips,
- the laying strips are cut using the perforated line to form the space, in which the connection unit is to be installed, and a tray, in which the connection unit is to be arranged, is then provided at a bottom of the space, and
- wherein, in laying the optical cable,
- the optical cable is introduced into the tray and the connection unit is formed, and
- the connection unit is accommodated in the tray, and an open side of the space is then covered with a lid.
