How To Prevent Underground Fiber Cable Cut

ABSTRACT Fiber optic communication systems have revolutionized the telecommunications industry, because it is used for faster transmitting of telephone signals, internet communication and cable television signal due to such lower attenuation and interference. The optical fibers are buried deep in the ground (1.2-1.5 meters) away from human activities. However, these fibers are been cut on frequently, the minute a fiber is cut, there is a halt in the smooth transition of signal.  To prevent this occurrence, we designed and constructed underground cable cut detection system. The underground mo…
