From high-voltage power grids spanning rivers and valleys, to the unfathomable depths of the oceans; from heavily guarded defense installations, to bustling smart highways with endless traffic flow… In these extreme environments where connection reliability is paramount, conventional optical cables fall short, while special optical cables prove their remarkable capabilities.
All-Dielectric Self-Supporting (ADSS) Optical Cable:
-
Characteristics: Features a non-metallic structure, utilizing aramid yarn and FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) as strength members.
-
Application: Primarily used on high-voltage power transmission lines. It can be directly suspended from power towers, allows for installation without power interruption, offers excellent resistance to electrical tracking, and poses no risk to the safety of the power system.
Submarine Optical Cable:
-
Characteristics: Specially engineered to withstand immense hydrostatic pressure (increasing by 1 ton for every 10 meters of depth), dragging forces, and to prevent hydrogen ingress into the fibers. It boasts a complex, multi-layer protective structure typically comprising a fiber unit, steel wire armoring, and a copper tube.
-
Application: Forms the backbone of transoceanic communication networks, carrying over 99% of international data traffic.
Optical Ground Wire (OPGW):
-
Characteristics: Integrates optical fiber units within the overhead ground wire of a transmission line, serving the dual functions of communication and grounding.
-
Application: An ideal choice for power utility communication systems, commonly deployed in new high-voltage transmission lines.
