Evaluating and Meeting Cable RequirementsNOTEKinks and sharp bends can destroy or impair the cable’s ability to convey light pulses accurately fromone end of the cable to the other. Use care in dressing the optical-fiber cables: provide satisfactorystrain relief to support the cable and maintain an adequate bend radius at all cable turns, particularlywhere the cable connects to the I/O module.Figure 12: Bend radius for fiber optic cableMinimum2 in.
