Tags: Fiber Optic Cable, ADSS, ASU Cable,All Dielectric Self-Supporting
ASU (Aerial Self-supporting Unit) Fiber Optic Cable is a type of fiber optic cable specifically designed for aerial applications. These cables are self-supporting, meaning they can be installed without the need for additional support structures such as messenger wires. They are built to withstand outdoor environments and are commonly used for long-distance telecommunications, including internet and data services.
The fiber optic cable structure is put the ф250μm colored fiber in the PBT loose tube, and two FRP as strengthen member, Cable surface is extruded with a PE outer sheath.

Fetures
- Small Size and Light Weight
- Two FRP as strength member to provide good tensile performance
- Gel Filled or gel free , good waterproof performance
- Low price ,high fiber capacity
- Self-supporting design: Eliminates the need for external support, making installation easier and more cost-effective.
- Durability: Constructed to resist environmental factors such as UV radiation, temperature fluctuations, and physical stresses.

Application
ASU (Aerial Self-supporting Unit) optical fiber cables are designed for various applications, particularly in telecommunications and networking. Here are some common applications:
Telecommunications:
- Used for long-distance data transmission in telecommunications networks.
- Facilitates high-speed internet services in urban, suburban, and rural areas.
Fiber to the Home (FTTH):
- Provides high-speed broadband connections directly to residential homes.
- Supports video, voice, and data services for individual households.
Fiber to the Building (FTTB):
- Delivers fiber optic connections to commercial buildings, apartments, and office complexes.
- Ensures high-speed internet and network services for multiple users in a single location.
Backbone Networks:
- Serves as the main data transmission path within an area, connecting various subnetworks.
- Used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and telecommunications companies for core network infrastructure.
Aerial Installations:
- Ideal for overhead installations along utility poles and other aerial routes.
- Can be installed in both urban and rural areas, reducing the need for underground cabling.
Campus and Enterprise Networks:
- Connects different buildings within a campus or large enterprise, providing a unified network infrastructure.
- Ensures reliable and high-speed data transfer between different parts of the organization.
Rural and Remote Area Connectivity:
- Helps in extending network services to remote and underserved areas.
- Provides essential communication services in areas where underground cabling is not feasible.
Municipal and Government Networks:
- Supports public safety networks, traffic management systems, and other municipal services.
- Used in government facilities for secure and efficient data communication.
ASU optical fiber cables are preferred for these applications due to their durability, ease of installation, and ability to maintain high performance in various environmental conditions.
