ADSS Cable 48C Single Jacket, Span 120m fibra óptica
All Dielectric self-supporting Aerial,Loose Multi-tube,
Monomode óptico para,Aramid yarn,inner water blocking tape

Introduction

ADSS cable is loose tube stranded. Fiber, 250μm, are positioned in a loose tube made of a high modulus plastic. The tubes are lled with a water-resistant lling compound. The tubes(and llers) are stranded around a FRP(Fiber Reinforced Plastic ) as a non-metallic central strength member into a compact and circular cable core. After the cable core is lled with lling compound, it is covered with thin PE(polyethylene) inner sheath. After stranded layer of aramid yarns are applied over the inner sheath as strength member, the cable is completed with PE or AT(anti-tracking) outer sheath.

What is ADSS cable

All-Dielectric Self-Supporting (ADSS) cables are a type of optical fiber cable uniquely capable of selfsupporting installation between structures, eliminating the need for conductive metal elements. Commonly utilized by electrical utilities, these cables are installed alongside existing overhead transmission lines, often using the same supports as electrical conductors.


ADSS cables offer a cost-effective alternative to OPGW (Optical Ground Wire) and OPAC (Optical Phase Conductor) cables. They are engineered for strength, enabling installations spanning up to 700 meters between support towers. Their design focuses on being lightweight and having a small diameter to minimize the impact on tower structures from factors like cable weight, wind, and ice.


The cable's design ensures the internal glass optical fibers are supported with minimal strain, maintaining low optical loss over the cable's lifetime. A protective jacket shields the fibers from moisture and safeguards the cable's polymer strength components from solar UV radiation.

 


Types of the ADSS cables

ADSS cables, distinct for not using any metal wires, utilize optical fibers that are either housed in loose buffer tubes or arranged in a ribbon-like configuration. To ensure minimal strain on the fibers, the design typically includes excess slack in the fibers compared to the length of the cable's supporting structure.

For installations requiring longer spans, a prevalent design incorporates aramid fiber yarns for strength. These yarns are coated to prevent water absorption. Surrounding this strength layer is a core composed of several buffer tubes, each containing multiple fibers, which in turn encircle a central plastic core. 
An external sheath encases the entire structure, offering protection against water ingress and sunlight exposure.

The types of ADSS (All-Dielectric Self-Supporting) cable can primarily be differentiated based on their sheathing or jacketing, with the most common variations being single sheath and double sheath designs. Here's a brief overview of each:
  


Single Sheath ADSS Cable:

Construction

This type features a single outer jacket layer. Lightweight: It's typically lighter than double sheath variants.


Applications: 

Ideal for environments with lower risk of mechanical damage or where cable weight is a critical factor.


Cost-Efficient:

Generally more cost-effective due to less material usage.


Environmental Resistance: 
Offers sufficient protection against UV rays, moisture, and minor abrasions.

 

 


Double Sheath ADSS Cable:

Construction: 

Equipped with two layers of sheathing, an inner and an outer jacket.


Enhanced Protection: 

Provides better mechanical protection, making it suitable for harsher environments.


Durability: 

More resistant to abrasion, rodents, and other forms of physical damage.


Weight and Cost: 

Heavier and typically more expensive than single sheath cables due to additional materials.


Applications: 
Preferred in areas with higher potential for mechanical stress, such as regions with dense vegetation or frequent severe weather.

How to select the right ADSS cable?

Selecting the right ADSS (All-Dielectric Self- Supporting) cable involves considering several key factors to ensure it meets the specific requirements of your project. Here's a guide to help you make the right choice:


Span Length: 

Choose based on the distance between support structures; Short spans like 80m, longer spans up to 700m.


Fiber Count: 

Decide on the number of fibers(6,12,24,48,96,144) needed for your data transmission requirements.


Fiber type: 

Most popular is G.652.D Environmental Conditions: Consider factors like wind, ice, and UV exposure to determine the need for protective sheathing.


Proximity to Power Lines: 

Ensure the cableʼs electrical characteristics are safe for installation near power lines.


Mechanical Loads: 

Evaluate the cableʼs tensile strength and weight for installation and environmental stress resistance.


Cable Diameter and Weight: 

Balance strength with the limitations of installation and support structures.




Optical Fiber Hardware for ADSS cables

Accessories for ADSS (All-Dielectric Self-Supporting) cables are crucial for their proper installation, support, and protection. These accessories ensure the cable's stability and functionality across various environmental conditions. Here's a list of common accessories used with ADSS cables:


ADSS Cable Guy Grips

Preformed tension dead-end grip is usually used in the installation of the exposed conductor, electric transmission & distribution, and overheard insulated conductor. The reliability and economic advantage are better than the present bolt type and hydraulic

compression type Tension clamp Dead-end which now is being widely in the line. ADSS cable guy grips were developed to grip the ADSS fiber optical cable during the construction of internet network lines on wood poles or concrete towers.


ADSS Cable Suspension Grips

ADSS suspension clamp is also called preformed suspension clamp or AGS suspension clamp, it offers a complete set of Aluminum clad, rubber, armor grip, bolt, and nut to support and protect the ADSS/OPGW cable from damage due to bending.


FTTX ADSS Suspension Clamp

These clamps support the weight of the cable across spans. They're designed to minimize stress and bending at the support points.


FTTH ADSS Anchor Tension Clamp

Applied at points where the cable is under tension, like at sharp directional changes or ends, to maintain cable integrity and prevent damage.


Aluminum Hoop&Pole Bracket

Brackets are used to attach the cable's support hardware to poles or towers. They provide a stable base for other fittings.


FTTH Hook

Hooks are used to guide and support the cable along its installation path, particularly on poles or towers.


Stainless Steel Strip/Buckle

Stainless Steel strapping is ideal for ADSS cable and pipe banding applications that require various bundle diameters.


Cable Storage Bracket

- Metal channel structural frame provides a durable light-weight design with ridged strength that is easy to install.

- Corrosion Resistant Materials - Aluminum.

- Bolt together Crossarm packs in the uniform low-profile container that reduces shipping costs and is easier to inventory.

- Multiple Keyholes adapt various Splice Cases.

- Wide cable keepers avoid point loads and provide better cable support.


ADSS Cable Down-Lead Clamp

Down-lead Clamp is designed to lead down cables on the splice and Terminal Poles/ towers and to fix the arch section on the Middle Reinforcing Poles/ towers. 

Normally, a unit of Down-lead Clamp is needed per 1.5 meters, and it is also used in other fixing areas.

The design purpose

The cables are designed to be strong enough to allow lengths of up to 700 meters to be installed between support towers. ADSS cable is designed to be lightweight and small in diameter to reduce the load on tower structures due to cable weight, wind, and ice. 

In the design of the cable, the internal glass optical fibers are supported with no strain to maintain low optical loss throughout the life of the cable. The cable is jacketed to prevent moisture from degrading the fibers. 

The jacket also protects the polymer strength elements from the effect of solar ultraviolet light. Using single-mode fibers and light wavelengths of either 1310 or 1550 nanometres, circuits up to 100 km long are possible without repeaters. 

A single cable can carry as many as 144 fibers.

 

Normally Construction details

Aramid Yarn Details: Something like (20*K49 3000D). This main calculation of tensile strength.

 

According to the stress formula, S=Nmax/E*ε,

E (Tensile modulus)=112.4 GPa(K49 1140Dinner)

Nmax=W*(L2/8f+f);

L=span(m);usually 100m,150m,200m,300m,500m,600m;

f=Cable sag; usually 12m or 16m.

Nmax=W*(L2/8f+f)=0.7*(500*500/8*12+12)=1.83KN

S=Nmax/E*ε=1.83/114*0.008=2 mm²

Saramid(K49 2840D)=3160*10-4/1.45=0.2179mm²

N numbers aramid yarn=S/s=2/0.2179=9.2

General aramid fiber hinge pitch is 550mm-650mm,angle=10-12°

 

W=Maximum load (kg/m)=W1+W2+W3=0.2+0+0.5=0.7kg/m

W1=0.15kg/m(This is the weight of ADSS cable)

 

W2=ρ*[(D+2d)⊃2;-D⊃2;]*0.7854/1000(kg/m) (This is the weight of ICE)

ρ=0.9g/cm³, the density of ice.

D=Diameter of ADSS. Usually 8mm-18mm

d=Ice cover thickness;No ice=0mm,Light ice=5mm,10mm;Heavy ice=15mm,20mm,30mm;

ADSS cable2

 

 

RTS: Rated tensile strength

Refers to the calculated value of the strength of the bearing section (mainly counting the spinning fiber).

 

UTS: Ultimate Tensile Strength UES>60% RTS

In the effective life of the cable, it is possible to exceed the design load when the cable by the maximum tension. That means the cable can be overloaded for a short time.

 

MAT: Max allowable working tension 40% RTS

MAT is an essential basis for sag-tension-span calculation and necessary evidence to characterize the stress-strain characteristics of ADSS optical cable. Refers to the design of meteorological conditions under the theoretical analysis of the total load and cable tension.

Under this tension, the fiber strain should be no more than 0.05% (laminated) and no more than 0.1% (central pipe) without additional attenuation.

 

EDS: Every Day Strength (16~25)% RTS

The annual average stress, sometimes called the moderate daily stress, refers to the wind and no ice, and the yearly average temperature, the theoretical calculation of the load cable tension, can be considered the ADSS in the long-term operation of the intermediate pressure (should) force.

EDS is generally (16~25) %RTS.

Under this tension, the fiber should have no strain, no additional attenuation, that is, very stable.

EDS is also the fatigue aging parameter of optical fiber optic cable, according to which the anti-vibration design of optical fiber optic cable is determined.
