Optic Fiber Ground Wire - OPGW Cable
Plastic Tube Design
Aluminum-Clad Steel and Aluminum Alloy wires are stranded around a central optical unit.
Central SS Tube Design
It features a high optical fiber count OPGW providing excellent communication capabilities within a small overall diameter. Installation of this design is straight forward untilizing standard OPGW hardware and equipment. It is custom designed to satisfy each customer’s specified communication and groundwire requirements for short circuit current capacity, tensile strength, fiber count and fiber type while complying to ASTM, IEEE or IEC International Standards.
It features optical fibers placed loosely in a hermetically sealed stainless steel tube containing a gel filling compound to form an optical unit.

Central Dual Tube Design
It is a compact OPGW design with excellent short circuit current capacity and mechanical strength. The design construction consists of a sealed inner stainless steel tube encased in an aluminum sealed tube. This design is well suited for highly corrosive environments without requiring the use of anti-corrosive grease. The dual tube design offers greater crush and mechanical protection to the fibers from environmental effects. Single wire layer designs allow for larger outer metallic wires, offering excellent lightning performance.

Multiple Optical Tube Design
It features optical fibers placed loosely in a hermetically sealed stainless steel tube containing a gel filling compound to form an optical unit. This tube provides protection to the optical fibers during installation and operation under severe environmental conditions.
