FITTINGS CATALOGUE FOR OPGW CABLE

OPGW fiber optic cable is for outdoor use

OPGW fiber cable is the short form of Optical Fiber Composite Overhead Ground Wire. Especially for installation on normal voltage and extra high voltage power lines. An optical ground wire (also known as an OPGW or, in the IEEE standard, an optical fiber composite overhead ground wire) is a type of cable that is used in overhead power lines. OPGW is primarily used by the electric utility industry, placed in the secure topmost position of the transmission line where it "shields" the all-important conductors from lightning while providing a telecommunications path for internal as well as third party communications. As the backbone of modern telecom infrastructure, these cables come in specialized designs to operate reliably despite the challenges of humidity, tension, wind, rodents.

Color rings of 36-core OPGW optical cable

Fiber 1 to Fiber 12: Blue, Orange, Green, Brown, Slate, White, Red, Natural, Yellow, Violet, Rose and Aqua. AFL AlumaCore OPGW (Optical Ground Wire) is preferred for its central aluminum pipe and color-coded fiber optic buffer tubes which simplify the splicing process while providing optimum fiber protection as well as long term product reliability. Application OPGW is mainly applied in communication line of newly constructed high voltage transmit electricity system with 35 KV or above, or replacement of existing ground wire of previous overhead high voltage transmit electricity system. The cable contains optical fibers for data transmission and telecom purposes and is installed instead of a ground wire. Fiber 13 to Fiber 24: same base color but with one black ring mark at regular interval.

Opgw optical cable suspension string

Assembly with reinforced suspension clamp and neoprene inner covering, especially designed for OPGW cables. OPGW accessories also called OPGW hardware fittings, OPGW fittings or OPGW hardware are designed for use in the OPGW fiber optic cable construction. We offer a full range of AB Cable (Aerial Bundled Cable) accessories and fittings which conform to NFC and IEC standards. Our product range includes a wide range of overhead line hardware such as suspension clamps, tension clamps, vibration dampers, stay wires, dead-end clamps, conductor accessories, and grounding hardware.

Opgw optical cable guide clamp

The guide clamp is used to guide OPGW cable down steel towers, steel poles, concrete poles and wood poles to splice locations. OPGW Junction box is mainly used for protecting the fiber optic junction between two cables and reserve a section of fiber optic for maintenance in the box. The downlead clamp secures and guides optical cables, such as Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) and All-Dielectric Self-Supporting (ADSS) cable, from transmission structures to splice boxes. It replaces the earlier PLCC (using waves as the transport medium) with an optical signal which is faster and distortion free.

Ground wire OPGW composite optical cable

An optical ground wire (also known as an OPGW or, in the IEEE standard, an optical fiber composite overhead ground wire) is a type of cable that is used in overhead power lines. An OPGW cable contains a tubular structure with one or more optical fibers in it, surrounded by layers of steel and aluminum wire.
