All-Dielectric Self-Supporting Aerial Cable (ADSS)
Product Overview ADSS optical cable features a loose-tube stranded structure with non-metallic central strength member (FRP) and high-tensile aramid yarns. Designed for aerial installation along power transmission lines without requiring metallic messenger wires. Available in Single Sheath and Double Sheath options with PE or Anti-Tracking (AT) outer sheath.
Key Features
Lightweight & Compact: Low wind and ice load on support towers.
Non-Metallic & Anti-Tracking: Immune to lightning and electrical tracking in high-voltage lines.
High Strength & Large Span: Supports long span lengths exceeding 1000 meters.
Live-Line Installation: Can be installed without power line shutdowns.
Long Service Life: Expected operational lifespan exceeding 30 years (-40°C to +70°C).
