Application
Optical Fiber Cable Water Penetration Tester (mechanical base) is designed to determine the ability of a cable to block water migration along a specified length. Compliance shall be checked on samples of cable using one of the two following methods (F5A or F5B).
Method F5A tests for water migration between the outer interstices of the optical core and the outer sheath, whereas
method F5B tests for water migration over the entire cross-section designed to be water-blocked.
