Optical Fiber Composite Ground Wire (OPGW)
It is designed to replace traditional static / shield / ground cables in overhead transmission lines with the added benefit of containing optical fibers that can be used for telecommunications purposes.
The optical ground cable (OPGW) is a double-functioning cable.It is designed to replace traditional static / shield / ground cables in overhead transmission lines with the added benefit of containing optical fibers that can be used for telecommunications purposes. It is able to withstand the mechanical stresses applied to aerial cables by environmental factors such as wind and ice, it also handles electrical defects in the transmission line by providing a path to earth without damaging the sensitive optical fibers inside the cable.
Main Features:
Tensile strength.
Equilibrio óptimo de las prestaciones mecánicas y eléctricas.
Optimum balance of mechanical and electrical performance.
Adaptable for optical cable communication systems.
