DETAIL

The OPGW cable is wrapped in metal wire, making it more reliable, stable, and sturdy. It uses aluminum-clad steel wire, which is equivalent to a good aerial ground conductor.

It can offer several benefits, such as reducing the potential power supply flow on the transmission line, reducing power frequency surges, and improving power line interference and its harmful influence on the communication line. Because optical fiber has anti-electromagnetic interference characteristics and is lightweight, it can be installed at the top of the transmission line tower without considering issues such as optimal mounting position and electromagnetic corrosion. Therefore, OPGW has higher reliability and superior mechanical properties.

Features

Braided stainless steel tube

- The wire strands are replaced by stainless steel tubes filled with fiber

- The fiber tubes are helically twisted along the cables.

- The fiber deformation margin increases in relation to central tube designs

- Loaded buckling can be increased without inducing tension in the fiber.

Compact design

- Reduced weight – Greater flexibility

- Smallest minimum radius of curvature

- Easier to handle and install

Lower wind and ice loads put less stress on structures

Applications

• Stainless steel tubes filled with hydrophobic gel provide protection and support to the optical fibers

• Good traction performance

• Small diameter, light weight, little additional load on the tower.

• Excess fiber length suitable for the optical unit is easy to manufacture.
