Single Mode G.652.D ADSS (All Dielectric Self-Supporting) Single Jacket Aerial Optical Fiber Cables
ADSS (All Dielectric Self-Supporting) aerial optical fiber cables for high-performance aerial environments,
including power transmission and distribution networks. All-dielectric construction avoids metal components,
reducing installation cost (no shielding/grounding required). These cables are manufactured to international standards.
Applications
- Aerial installation
- Lightning protection
- Junction communication systems
- Subscriber network systems
Cable Construction (summary)
- Loose tube filled with gel, stranded around central strength member
- Dry core with core wrap and water-blocking materials (yarns / tapes)
- Peripheral strength member: layer of aramid yarn
- Polyethylene outer jacket (single jacket ADSS)

Technical Characteristics:
Technical Characteristics (key points)
- Extrusion technology provides good fiber flexibility and bending endurance.
- Controlled fiber excess length method improves mechanical & environmental performance.
- Multiple water-blocking materials provide dual water-blocking function.
- Good crush resistance.
Features & Benefits
- Supports single-mode and multimode fibers.
- Round profile minimizes wind loading, tensile & ice loading (reduces sag and tensile force).
- All-dielectric loose tube design is immune to electromagnetic interference.
