Designed specifically for deployment alongside power lines and utility poles, ADSS eliminates the need for metallic components and external support structures, making it a go-to choice for power grid communications, smart cities, and rural connectivity. In the realm of aerial fiber optic infrastructure—where cables must withstand harsh weather, high voltages, and mechanical stress— ADSS (All Dielectric Self-Supporting) fiber optic cables stand out as a game-changer. All-Dielectric Self Supporting (ADSS) cables can be erected in close proximity to power transmission lines. This of course, allows for pole sharing, which of course, reduces installation costs and speeds-up deployment. It is typically used when the existing phase or ground wire replacement is not possible or economical. Obviously, these fiber cables need to be resistant to electricity, which can be difficult as many aerial cables contain high tensile steel (HTS) for tensile strength.
