Ftth Stainless Steel Fiber Optic Accessories S Type Outdoor Anchor Drop Wire Clamp

A span clamp and outdoor wire anchor are needed to drop telecommunication cable into a customer’s home. If a span clamp should come apart from a messenger wire or a self-supporting type of telecommunication cable, or if an outdoor wire anchor should come apart from the span clamp, the drop line will hang loose, which will create a facility fault. It is therefore necessary to prevent such accidents by ensuring that these components do not separate from the equipment.

The separation of a span clamp or outdoor wire anchor can be caused by
(1) loosening of the nut on the span clamp,
(2) incorrect placement of the separation-prevention washer .
(3) corrosion and subsequent deterioration of an iron fitting.
(4) Conditions (1)and (2) can be prevented by properly installing the components, but deterioration caused by corrosion (3) cannot be prevented by proper installation work alone.
