ADSS-100M All-Dielectric Self-Supporting Aerial Fiber Optic Cable
Product Overview
ADSS (All-Dielectric Self-Supporting) cable is a non-metallic aerial cable designed for direct installation between poles or towers without requiring a steel messenger wire. This series supports 100-meter spans and is available in fiber counts of 4, 6, 12, 24, 48, or 96 fibers. Featuring a loose tube stranded structure with all-dielectric materials and no metallic components, it is ideal for high-voltage transmission lines and telecommunication overhead applications.
