Optical ground wire (OPGW) is a dual functioning cable. It is designed to replace traditional static/shield/earth wires on overhead transmission lines with the added benefit of containing optical fibers which can be used for telecommunications purposes. OPGW must be capable of withstanding the mechanical stresses applied to overhead cables by environmental factors such as wind and ice. OPGW must also be capable of handling electrical faults on the transmission line by providing a path to ground without damaging the sensitive optical fibers inside the cable.

The OPGW cable design is constructed of a fiber optic core (with multiple sub-units depending on the fiber count) encased in a hermetically sealed hardened aluminum pipe with a covering of one or more layers of steel and/or alloy wires. Installation is very similar to the process used to install conductors, although care must be taken to use the proper sheave or pulley sizes so as not to cause damage or crush the cable. After installation, when the cable is ready to be spliced, the wires are cut away exposing the central aluminum pipe which can easily be ring-cut with a pipe cutting tool. The color-coded sub-units are preferred by most users because they make splice box preparation very simple.

    • GYFJH

      GYFJH

      The GYFJH radio frequency remote fiber optic cable. The structure of the optical cable is using two or four single-mode or multi-mode fibers which directly covered with low-smoke and halogen-free material to make tight-buffer fiber, each cable uses high-strength aramid yarn as the reinforcing element, and is extruded with a layer of LSZH inner sheath. Meanwhile, in order to fully ensure the roundness and physical and mechanical characteristics of the cable, two aramid fiber filing ropes are placed as reinforcement elements, Sub cable and the filler unit are twisted to form a cable core and then extruded by LSZH outer sheath (TPU or other agreed sheath material is also available upon request).

    • Self-supporting  Figure 8  Fiber Optic Cable

      Self-supporting Figure 8 Fiber Optic Cable

      The 250um fibers are positioned in a loose tube made of high modulus plastic. The tubes are filled with a water-resistant filling compound. A steel wire is located in the center of the core as a metallic strength member. The tubes (and fibers) are stranded around the strength member into a compact and circular cable core. After an Aluminum (or steel tape) Polyethylene Laminate (APL) moisture barrier is applied around the cable core, this part of the cable, accompanied by the stranded wires as the supporting part, is completed with a polyethylene (PE) sheath to form a figure 8 structure. Figure 8 cables, GYTC8A and GYTC8S, are also available upon request. This type of cable is specifically designed for self-supporting aerial installation.
