ASU Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable is an all-dielectric, self-supporting aerial cable engineered for short-to-medium span deployments (up to 100–150 m) without a steel messenger wire. Built with a central loose tube design, dual FRP strength members, and a weather-resistant outer sheath (PE or Anti-Tracking AT).
Key Features & Business Benefits
Reduced Pole Load & Rapid Installation: Uni-tube compact structure minimizes total cable weight and outer diameter, reducing strain on utility poles and lowering aerial installation labor costs.
100% Non-Metallic Structure: Dual parallel FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) rods deliver high tensile resistance while remaining fully dielectric, eliminating lightning risks and electromagnetic interference.
Moisture & Water Ingress Protection: PBT loose tube filled with water-blocking gel prevents longitudinal water migration, ensuring long-term optical attenuation stability in wet environments.
UV & Environmental Resistance: High-density PE or specialized Anti-Tracking (AT) outer sheath withstands solar radiation, precipitation, and thermal stress for outdoor service life.

FAQ
Q: What is the primary operational difference between ASU and ADSS cables?
A: ASU cable uses a compact uni-tube design with dual FRP rods suited for short-to-medium spans (up to 100–150 m). ADSS cable features a stranded loose-tube structure with aramid yarn reinforcement designed for longer spans and high-voltage power transmission environments.
Q: How do I choose between PE and Anti-Tracking (AT) sheaths for power line installations?
A: Choose standard PE sheaths for regular outdoor telecom overhead deployments. Select AT (Anti-Tracking) sheaths when installing adjacent to high-voltage power lines, where high space potential generates electrical tracking risks that require specialized jacket insulation.
Q: What information is required to receive an accurate RFQ?
A: Please provide: required fiber count, fiber type (e.g., G.652D or G.657A1), installation span length, sheath material (PE or AT), drum length (e.g., 2,000 m/reel), target quantity, and destination port.
Q: What is the typical lead time for standard and customized orders?
A: Backed by our annual capacity of 15 million core kilometers, standard configurations are dispatched within 5 to 15 working days. Customized manufacturing runs (special jacket colors, fiber brands, or pre-connectorized assemblies) depend on exact volume and technical specifications.
Q: Do you supply pre-terminated ASU cables with connectors?
A: Yes. Factory pre-connectorization (such as SC, LC, or FC connectors) can be provided based on your project requirements to streamline field installation.
