The difference between ADSS and OPGW fiber optic cable

28 Aug.,2023

 

Do you want to understand the difference between ADSS optical cable and OPGW optical cable? you must know the definition of these two optical cables and what are their main uses.

ADSS is more powerful and is a self-supporting fiber optic cable that can transmit power from one place to another without additional support. When the ADSS optical cable is installed in the air, there is no need for other metal parts, and there are no components to support it. ADSS wiring can meet different sizes of wiring schemes, and can also meet flat or airdrop.

OPGW fiber optic cable single wire has high voltage transmission efficiency, and can also be used in telecommunications to transmit data for high-speed data transmission purposes. OPGW optical cable products are very colorful, there are various products.

1) The installation location is different. If the wires need to be rewired or replaced due to aging, it is more appropriate to use OPGW optical cables; unlike OPGW optical cables, ADSS optical cables are more suitable for installation in the power distribution and transmission environment where the live wire is placed.
2) The installation cost is different
The installation cost of OPGW optical cable is relatively high, and a lot of money needs to be invested at one time; while the installation cost of ADSS optical cable will be relatively low, because it does not need to replace the electrical transmission line, and can also achieve free switching.
