AERIAL- Multitube – Single Jacket ADSS

2d0144:AL012:X—S-

Product Details

Anatolia  AERIAL Multi-tube Single Jacket ADSS Cables are small in diameter and light in weight which enable them to be installed aerially in short to medium span applications. This cable is a stranded loose tube cable with optical fibre placed inside robust buffer tubes stranded around a fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) central strength member. In addition to optical fibres, the buffer tubes contain water blocking gel and the cable core is surrounded with water-swellable tape to prevent water ingress in the interstices of cable core. High strength aramid yarns are evenly distributed over the core to provide the required tensile strength for aerial self-supporting applications. An overall thermoplastic jacket provides the cable with both mechanical and environmental protection.

Product Application

This ADSS Cable is designed for outside plant (OSP) aerial self-supported applications in distribution as well as local and campus network loop architectures. These cables are used in aerial applications for short to medium span lengths including deployment along existing aerial Right-of-Way and electric transmission towers.This cable is suitable for aerial-to-duct /underground transitions.
