Organization: TIA
Publication Date: 1 February 2000
Status: active
Page Count: 16
scope:

This test is intended to verify that filling and flooding compounds will not flow from a filled fiber optic cable at stated temperatures.(Footnote 1)

NOTE: Filling and flooding compounds minimize water penetration and assist in isolating fibers from outside environmental concerns.

Footnote 1 - For a similar test for other than fiber optic filled telecommunications cable, refer to the compound Flow test of ASTM D 4565.
