ADSS Fiber Optic Cable

ADSS — All-Dielectric Self-Supporting

ADSS carries the fiber on a dielectric strength member instead of a steel messenger, so aerial spans need no bonding and nothing to rust. A flexible workhorse for neighborhood feeder runs from 12 up to 144 fibers.

  • 12–144 fibers
  • 100–400 m self-supporting spans
  • IEC 60794-4 compliant
  • All-dielectric — no grounding, no messenger
Key Features

Aerial without the steel

◆

All-dielectric

No metal means no bonding to the pole and no corrosion path.

◆

Self-supporting

The strength member carries the load — single-pass aerial install.

◆

Wide fiber range

12 to 144 fibers in one construction family.

◆

Long spans

Reaches 100–400 m between supports.

◆

Tight protection

Loose tubes, gel/flooding and a PE outer sheath.

◆

Low maintenance

No messenger to inspect or replace over time.
