ADSS Type

ADSS (All-Dielectric Self-Supporting) cables are lightweight, durable, and ideal for aerial installations.

ADSS Optical Cable

(All Dielectric Self Supporting)

Features

The ADSS (All Dielectric Self Supporting) optical cable is designed with Aramid Yarn as peripheral strength members, providing high tensile strength and non-metallic properties. It is used for aerial applications and includes the following features:

  • Rodent resistant

  • Ballistic resistant

  • Termite resistant

  • Resistance to electrical induction and lightning effects

  • Strong mechanical properties

Cable Construction

  1. Anti-Tracking Outer Sheath (HDPE Anti-Tracking Sheath)

    • Made of HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene), resistant to leakage current and extreme environments.

  2. Water Blocking Tape

    • Prevents moisture penetration and water migration through the cable.

  3. Peripheral Strength Member

    • Aramid Yarn provides high tensile strength and non-metallic properties.

  4. Rip Cord

    • Facilitates easy cable stripping during installation.

  5. Flooding Compound

    • Fills the voids in the cable to prevent water ingress.

  6. Gel Filled PBT Color Coded Tube

    • Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) tubes filled with gel to protect optical fibers and prevent moisture.

    • Color-coded for easy identification.

  7. Binder

    • Binds the cable elements into a single core.

  8. Single Mode Color Coded Optical Fiber

    • Single-mode optical fibers, color-coded for easier identification during installation and splicing.

  9. PE Strength Member Jacket

    • Protective jacket made of polyethylene to safeguard the central strength members.

  10. Non-Metallic Central Strength Member

    • Made of non-metallic materials to enhance flexibility and resistance to electrical induction.

  11. Filled Rod

    • Provides additional mechanical support and prevents moisture ingress into the cable core.

Key Advantages

  • 100% non-metallic construction, ideal for areas prone to lightning or electrical induction.

  • High tensile strength, suitable for long-span aerial installations.

  • Protection against mechanical damage, rodents, and termites.
