How many CAT5e cables are permitted to be installed 1-1/4 1-1/2 & 2 inch innerduct?
	Answer by Roman Kitaev posted 11 Sep 2001
Hi, Paul! The calculation is very simple: (1) calculate the internal cross-sectional area of the duct (2) calculate the area of one cable (3) the maximum duct fill should be about 40% so, the number of cables is: N = (0.4 * duct area)/(area of one cable)
