ICEA S-119-741-2021 PDF

Fiber to the Antenna (FTTA) cables covered by this standard include cable used for distribution and delivery of optical fiber from the baseband unit (BBU) of a cell site to the remote radio unit (RRU)/active antenna unit (AAU) on the associated structure. These cables may be a hybrid design, incorporating electrical conductors for power delivery and control, or standalone optical cables. This standard primarily references ANSI/ICEA S-87-640 (ICEA 640) and ANSI/ICEA S-104-696 (ICEA 696) for optical performance requirements. Standalone optical cables complying with ICEA 640 or ICEA 696 shall also be considered compliant with this standard.
