Direct Burial of ADSS Optical Fiber

Home / Direct Burial of ADSS Optical Fiber

Optical fibers are either supported in loose buffer tubes, or arranged in a ribbon configuration. To prevent strain on the fibers, most types provide the fibres with excess slack length compared to the length of the supporting member. For longer spans, the most common design gets its strength from fiber yarns, which are coated to prevent water wicking.

ADSS Fiber Optic Cables

The ADSS cable reel (pay-off) must be located directly in line with the first traveler and must be back from the structure four times the height of the traveler (4:1 distance to height ratio). It is

OverviewConstruction detailsAccessories and installationApplication issues

No metal wires are used in an ADSS cable. Optical fibers are either supported in loose buffer tubes, or arranged in a ribbon configuration. To prevent strain on the fibers, most types provide the fibres with excess slack length compared to the length of the supporting member. For longer spans, the most common design gets its strength from aramid fiber yarns, which are coated to prevent water wicking. The aramid yarn strength member surrounds a core made up of multiple buffer tubes
