  • Is it safe to connect two fiber optic cables to the equipment room

    Is it safe to connect two fiber optic cables to the equipment room

    Because fiber cables are non-conductive, they isolate connected equipment from ground potential differences. Variations in ground potential between pieces of equipment can cause current loops on copper wiring, creating spark hazards and electrical noise. Besides the usual safety issues for all construction, generally covered under OSHA rules in the US (OSHA 10 and 30), fiber optics adds concerns for eye safety, chemicals, sparks from fusion splicing, disposal of fiber shards and more, covered in Part 1. This fundamental difference offers several key benefits in. “Can I join two fiber cables inside a cabinet?” The answer is yes—but only if done the right way.
