(air blown) feeder cable Explanation: Sorry, I'm not 100% sure. You'll have to do double check :-) In this link: Feeder/distribution cables for Air-blown installation Reference: http://www.fujikura.co.jp/eng/products/tele/tele_catalog/dat... |

Fiber optic feeder cable Explanation: The fiber optic splice enclosure 10 of the present invention is particularly suited for fiber to the premises applications. In such applications, a fiber optic splice enclosure is fed by a fiber optic feeder cable in communication with equipment at the service provider and one or more fiber optic drop cables that are routed to premises (e.g., homes or businesses). As noted above, the side coming from the service provider is generally referred to as the central office or CO side while the side leading to the premises is generally referred to as the drop side. The fiber optic feeder cables and the fiber optic drop or branch cables typically comprise a sheath surrounding a plurality of buffer tubes with each buffer tube housing a plurality of optical fibers either loosely or in a ribbon configuration. http://www.freepatentsonline.com/7274850.html This website provides an overview of air-assisted fiber optic cable installation, but it does not include the target term as such: http://www.polywater.com/airblow.html Reference: http://securitysolutions.com/mag/security_plans_needed_commu... |

Reference: Fibre optic cable being fed? Reference information: The reference below shows two common approaches to air-feeding fibre optic cable, which may be what your passage is talking about. I don't think "feeder cable" is a relevant term here but I am very unsure what your context is and it may be that this will help. Reference: http://www.polywater.com/airblow.html |
