1. What is the ASU80 Mini ADSS fiber optic cable?

The ASU80 is a compact, all-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS) aerial fiber optic cable designed for short span installations (typically 80m or 120m). It supports 1–12 core single-mode fibers and is ideal for FTTH and outdoor telecom networks.

2. What fiber types are supported in this cable?

The ASU80 cable supports standard single-mode fiber types including G.652D, G.655, and G.657 (A/A2), making it compatible with various installation requirements and bending performance standards.

3. What is the cable's structure and construction?

It features a loose-tube design filled with water-blocking gel, FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) strength members, and an HDPE outer jacket. This structure ensures excellent tensile strength, crush resistance, and weather durability.

4. What are the cable's mechanical and environmental specifications?

• Tensile strength: up to 1500 N

• Crush resistance: 2000 N/100mm

• Temperature range: −40°C to +70°C

• Bending radius: ≥10×OD (static), ≥20×OD (dynamic)

  
  

5. Where is this ADSS cable typically used?

This cable is used in outdoor aerial installations between poles or buildings, especially in environments where metallic elements are not allowed, such as near power lines. It’s suitable for FTTx, trunk, or distribution network deployments.

6. Does the cable require additional support or grounding?

No, ASU80 is a fully dielectric and self-supporting cable. It requires no metallic elements or external grounding, which simplifies installation and improves safety in high-voltage or EMI-prone environments.
