The principal feature of ADSS is that, unlike ordinary wires, it does not contain any metallic components; this makes it lighter, self-supporting, and electric-field-resistant. ADSS fiber optic cable structure is currently. ADSS (All-Dielectric Self-Supported) is a kind of fiber optic cable that does not include any metal components for support, unlike conventional optics that need a separate messenger wire. AFL-ADSS® (All-Dielectric Self-Supporting) cable is ideal for installation in distribution as well as transmission environments. Economical: The production cost of ADSS optical fiber cable is relatively low, which is mainly due to its unique design and material selection. It does not need a messenger wire or any metallic support. "All-dielectric" means it has no metal parts. Because of this, it can be used next to high-voltage power lines without.
