Abstract
An optical wave-guide cable network can be extended into buildings easily, quickly and economically, in a flexible and operatively reliable manner, at any time of year. The optical wave-guide cable network includes the optical wave-guide cables mounted on the wall of inaccessible conduit or pipe systems by means of fixing elements. The fixing elements includes means for holding at least one optical wave-guide cable and means for fixing on the wall of the conduit or pipe system. The fixing means are formed by a resiliently prestressed, closed stainless steel ring which presses against the wall of the conduit or pipe system.
