FDDI cables a BN24B-03. Does anyone know what the min bend rad is for

From the DECconnect System Fiber Optic Planning and Configuration Guide
(EK-DECSY-FP) page 11-24...
BN24B FDDI-to-FDDI Patch Cables (continuation)
Cable Minimum Bend Radius (inches) long term=1.5
...Sounds a bit liberal to me. I'd try not to exceed (inceed?) that
radius even short term. I always beleived it was 4in long, and 2in
short until I got the surprise of looking it up.

Thanks for the information and I agree that 1.5" does appear a bit
small for the radius either long or short term, however if thats the
specification.......
Thanks,
