ADSS cable is a type of fiber optic cable that is strong enough to support itself between structures without containing conductive metal elements. Both single mode and multimode fibers can be
ADSS cable does not need any additional support so it is small, lightweight and easy to install. Because it is non-conductive, it can be installed on towers or poles nearer electric wires,
ADSS (All-Dielectric Self-Supporting) cable is ideal for installation in distribution as well as transmission environments, even when live line installations are required. Using AT sheath, the working voltage
Fiber counts available for 12-432 fibers. Gel-Free Buffer tubes available with up to 216 fibers. Span lengths availble from 100-2500 feet (or meters). Please contact AFL for span lengths outside this
As its name indicates, there is no support or messenger wire required, so installation is achieved in a single pass, making ADSS an economical and simple means of building a fiber optic network.
ADSS is an alternative to OPGW and OPAC with lower installation cost. The cables are designed to be strong enough to allow lengths of up to 700 metres to be installed between support towers.

All-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS) cable is a type of optical fiber cable that is strong enough to support itself between structures without using conductive metal elements. It is used by electrical utility companies as a communications medium, installed along existing overhead transmission lines and often sharing the same support structures as the electrical conductors. ADSS is an alternative to OPGW and OPAC with lower installation cost. The cables are designed to be s
