FIBERLIGN Downlead Cushion For OPGW Or ADSS

The FIBERLIGN Downlead Cushion secures Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) downleads or ADSS cable downleads to structures while minimizing compressive clamping forces which could be transferred to the optical elements.

FEATURES

  • Offered as an all urethane product for OPGW or ADSS applications, as well as an all aluminum alloy product for OPGW applications.
  • All urethane product for OPGW or ADSS applications can be applied to either curved pole surfaces or flat surfaces.
  • Weather-resistant urethane is extremely durable yet pliable enough to firmly contain ADSS cable without damaging the plastic jacket.
  • All aluminum is designed for flat surface mounting of OPGW.
  • Mounting accessories may be included in the same container by adding the appropriate suffix code.
