Jumper

A Jumper feature is a (non-graphical) sheath that connects two splices together in a duct enclosure or in the same ped or vault. The Jumper command is normally used in ‘multi-sheath’ (non-graphical conduit) design. Though the ‘jumper’ is never displayed graphically, there is a logical connection made in the database. If graphic display of jumpers is desired, use the pigtail sheath.

  1. To place a jumper, click on the Jumper icon in the Placement section of the Fiber tab:

    Note: Since this command connects two specific types of equipment together, make sure you add the second piece of equipment before connecting them with a jumper.
  2. Locate the enclosure on the map.
  3. The Jumper Information dialog box displays.

  4. Verify that the jumper From and To equipment are the correct ones to connect.
  5. Select the span type, the XSection, the number of fiber contained in the jumper, its length and its name.
  6. Click OK to accept or Cancel to exit.
