Self-supporting aerial optical cables and power lines
Metallic Aerial Self-Supporting (MASS) Cable is an alternative solution used for installing optical cable on medium and high voltage power lines. It is typically used when the existing phase or ground wire replacement is not possible or economical. 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. They are designed to be lightweigh but also strong enough to be installed between support towers. Unlike traditional fiber optic cables, ADSS cables are made entirely of dielectric materials.
