Crossing distance of optical cables and power lines

Industry guidelines recommend: to maintain at least 20 cm (8 inches) between data and power cables when running in parallel; if cables must cross, do so at a 90-degree angle; use separate trays or conduits for high-voltage and communication cables; and for med...
