Kuphononongo olutsha olupapashwe namhlanje kwi-Journal ye-Environmental Science and Technology, abaphandi baye bafumanisa ukuba ukufakwa kunye nokusetyenziswa kwe-Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) iintambo zefiber zinokuba nefuthe elikhulu kwindalo.
Iintambo ze-OPGW zefayibha zihlala zisetyenziswa ziinkampani eziluncedo ukuhambisa idatha kunye neempawu zonxibelelwano ngelixa zibonelela ngenkqubo yokumisa iintambo zombane ezingaphezulu.Nangona iintambo zenzelwe ukuphucula unxibelelwano kunye nokhuseleko lokugcinwa kweentambo zombane, uphando lubonisa ukuba ukufakela kwabo kunokubangela ingozi kwindawo engqongileyo.
Uphononongo lwafumanisa ukuba ngexesha lofakelo, ukusetyenziswa koomatshini abanzima kunye nokucocwa kwezityalo kunokukhokelela ekukhukulisekeni komhlaba kunye nokutshatyalaliswa kwendawo yokuhlala, enokuba neempembelelo ezimbi kuluntu lwezilwanyana zasendle zendawo.Ukongezelela, ukwakhiwa kunye nokugcinwa kweentambo ze-OPGW zefayibha nazo zinokuba negalelo ekukhutshweni kwekhabhoni kunye nokunciphisa ubutyebi bendalo.
Umbhali okhokelayo wolu phando, uGqr Jane Smith, wachaza ukuba "Nangona iintambo ze-OPGW zefayibha zineenzuzo ezibalulekileyo, kubalulekile ukuba siqwalasele ifuthe labo lokusingqongileyo ngokunjalo. Uphononongo lwethu lubonisa ukuba ukufakwa kunye nokugcinwa kwezi ntambo kunokuba nemiphumo ebalulekileyo, kwaye kufuneka sifumane iindlela zokunciphisa ezi mpembelelo."
Uphononongo lucebisa ukuba iinkampani ezisebenzisa iintambo zefayibha ze-OPGW kufuneka zibeke phambili ukucutha impembelelo yokusingqongileyo yofakelo kunye nokugcinwa kwazo.Oku kunokubandakanya ukusebenzisa imathiriyeli kunye neendlela ezizinzileyo, ezinje ngobuchule bofakelo obungangeneleliyo okanye ukusetyenziswa kwezinto eziphinda zisetyenziswe.
Njengoko ukusetyenziswa kweentambo zosinga ye-OPGW kuqhubeka ukwanda, kubalulekile ukuba sithathele ingqalelo ifuthe lobuchwephesha kokusingqongileyo kwaye sisebenzele ukufumana izisombululo ezizinzileyo.Olu phononongo lubonelela ngeembono ezixabisekileyo kwiziphumo ezinokubakho zezi ntambo kwaye lunokunceda ukukhokela iinzame zexesha elizayo zokunciphisa impembelelo yazo kokusingqongileyo.
