ASU 12 Core Fiber Optic Cable 80m Span
The ASU 12 Core Fiber Optic Cable (80m Span) is a compact, ultra-lightweight, and completely non-metallic self-supporting aerial cable engineered specifically for medium-short span outdoor broadband networks. Built around a unicore (single loose tube) structure, it houses 12 single-mode G.652.D fiber cores inside a jelly-filled central chamber, providing reliable water-blocking protection and stable optical performance.
Specifically calibrated for an 80-meter aerial span, this ASU cable is reinforced with two parallel, high-tensile Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) rods embedded directly within its UV-resistant polyethylene (PE) jacket. Its 100% dielectric composition ensures total immunity to lightning strikes and high-voltage electrical tracking, making it an ideal, cost-effective solution for aerial pole-to-pole deployments without the need for additional messenger wires.
- FTTH Rural & Suburban Aerial Backbones: Connecting distribution points across 80-meter pole gaps in residential and semi-rural FTTH rollout projects.
- Power Line Co-location: Safely hung on high-voltage power distribution poles and light poles without risk of electrical induction, grounding issues, or lightning damage.
- Campus & Industrial Aerial Interconnects: Overhead data links bridging adjacent factory buildings, office complexes, or educational facilities.
- Outdoor CCTV & Smart City Surveillance: Overhead signal links powering smart city traffic sensors, surveillance cameras, and Wi-Fi access points.

- Engineered for 80m Spans: Thickened parallel FRP rods provide the exact tensile strength needed to maintain low sag across 80-meter gaps under severe wind and temperature shifts.
- 100% Dielectric & Lightning-Proof: Fully non-metallic construction eliminates grounding procedures and protects the network against lightning strikes and high-voltage interference.
- Compact Unicore Construction: Small outer profile minimizes wind load resistance and reduces weight pressure on utility poles.
- Fast & Cost-Efficient Installation: Self-supporting design allows workers to string the cable directly between poles, eliminating extra steel lashing wires and reducing installation time and labor costs.
- Precision FRP Span Calibration: We precisely adjust the FRP rod dimensions and outer jacket formulation to meet your specific regional weather conditions and span requirements.
- Rigid Quality Assurance: Every production batch of 12-core ASU cable undergoes rigorous tensile pulling, crush, and thermal cycling tests in our internal laboratory before being loaded on export reels.
