As optical fibre cables are intrinsically much lighter than copper cables, blowing became an alternative to drawing (cable drawn with a needle) when installing cables in ducts. The pushing force and air flow injection in blowing reduces the friction between the cable. Cable blowing is the process of installation of optical fiber cable into a pre-installed duct. Compressed air flows at high speed through the duct and along the cable. Installing long. Unlike traditional fiber optic cables that rely on mechanical pulling, air blown fiber utilizes high-speed compressed air to “jet” lightweight, specialized microcables through pre-installed microducts.
