CITY OF SANTA ANA <br /> SPECIFICATIONS <br /> PROJECT NO.: 25-6030 <br /> TRAFFIC SIGNAL INSTALLATION AT SEGERSTROM AVENUE AND ROSEWOOD <br /> AVENUE <br /> Field terminations shall be limited to splicing of adjoining trunk cable ends and <br /> pigtail breakouts. The pigtails shall utilize factory installed SC connectors. <br /> 6. Fiber Optic Testing <br /> a. General <br /> Testing shall include the tests on elements of the passive fiber optic <br /> components: (1)at the factory, (2) after delivery to the project site but prior to <br /> installation, (3) after installation but prior to connection to any other portion of <br /> the system, and(4) during final system testing. All active components shall be <br /> tested after installation. The Contractor shall provide all personnel,equipment, <br /> instrumentation and materials necessary to perform all testing. The Engineer <br /> shall be notified in writing a minimum of two working days prior to all field <br /> tests. The notification shall include the exact location or portion of the system <br /> to be tested. <br /> Documentation of all test results shall be provided to the Engineer for approval <br /> within two working days after the test involved. The Contractors attention is <br /> directed to "As-Builts" elsewhere in these special provisions, regarding the <br /> requirements for recording test results. <br /> Attenuation tests shall be performed with an OTDR capable of recording and <br /> displaying anomalies of 0.2 dB as a minimum. Single mode fibers (SM) shall <br /> be tested at 1310 nm and 1550 nm. <br /> The OTDR shall have a printer capable of producing a verifying test trace with <br /> fiber identification as shown in the sample "Link Loss Budget Work Sheet", <br /> numerical loss values, the date and the operator's name. It shall also have a <br /> DOS based 3.5 inch-disk recording capability that has associated software to do <br /> comparisons and reproductions on 8.5 inch x 11 inch paper, via a personal <br /> computer. <br /> Prior to arrival of the cable, the Contractor shall provide detailed test procedures <br /> for all field testing to the Engineer. The procedures shall include the tests involved <br /> and how the tests are to be conducted. These test plans shall be subject to the <br /> approval of the Engineer. The procedures shall include the tests involved and how <br /> the tests are to be conducted. Included in the test procedures shall be the model, <br /> manufacturer, configuration, calibration and alignment procedures for all <br /> proposed test equipment. <br /> b. Factory Testing <br /> Verification of the fiber specifications as listed in the Fiber Characteristics <br /> Table shall be supplied by the Manufacturer with the appropriate <br /> documentation. After cabling, before shipment but while on the shipping reel, <br /> 100 percent of all fibers shall be tested for attenuation. Copies of the results <br /> 80 <br />
