ADSS-100M All-Dielectric Self-Supporting Aerial Cable – 4 to 96 Fibers, 100m Span
This non-metallic, fully dielectric overhead cable is designed for a standard span of 100 meters. Available fiber counts: 4, 6, 12, 24, 48, 96 (G.652D single‑mode). The cable can be installed directly on poles or towers without a steel messenger. Suitable for power transmission lines (10kV-220kV) and telecommunication networks.
