Description
ADSS (All-dielectric Self-supporting) optical fibre cable is atype of self-supporting aerial fiber optic cable designed for aerial installation and deployment and is suitable for various outdoor applications. This thorough overview will cover the definition, structure, benefits, and applications of ADSS fiber cables.

Features
- --Stranded loose tube design ensures that the are always free from mechanical strain under the specified loading conditions
- --Double Jacket designs for medium to long span applications and moderate to heavy ice and wind loading conditions
- --No metallic or conductive components, allowing the live-line installation (subject to local regulation)
- --Use for both earth-wires and phase conductors
- --Torsionally-balanced aramid yarn strength elements provide stable cable design
- --UV-resistant polyethylene sheath is compatible with fittings
- --OEM extremely long spans available
-
ApplicationS
- Utilised for communications by power utilities, telcos, and private network groups
- Designed for installation on distribution and transmission lines
- Capable of being installed in close proximity to conductors if security is a concern
- Suitable for applications, minimizing the need for outages
