Product List

FDH(Fiber Distribution Hub)

The FDH is designed and constructed to be suitable for outdoor installation. The housing is
1 sufficiently sturdy to withstand typical handling and installation procedures. The design and layout
of the cable guides promote an efficient and ordered positioning of the cable within the hub.

Joint Box
Suitable for OPGW cable connection protection, has the function for direct connections and
2 divergence connection, which can out of 4 cable, installed in the overhead pole, tower.

Clamp
Clamps are used to guide OPGW cables from the top of the structure to the joint box or for
3 grounding the cable. TFO provide proper spacing and holding strength without damaging the
cable.

Tension Assembly
Tension Assembly is used for OPGW cable route’s fixing and anchor shackling. Usually be
4 installed on the terminal tower, tight tension tower and intersection angle tower etc.

Vibration Damper
Vibration Dampers effectively reduce the level of Aeolian vibrations on OPGW cables. It respond to
5 wind induced line vibrations that is characterized by high frequency, low amplitude motion.

OPGW(Optical Ground Wire)

OPGW  is a type of cable that is used in the construction of  electric power transmission and
6 distribution lines. Such cable combines the functions of grounding and communications. An OPGW
cable contains a tubular structure with one or more  optical fibers  in it, surrounded by layers
of steel and aluminum wire.

Suspension Assembly
Suspension Assembles are designed for use with OPGW cable at suspension tower positions.
7 Suspension Assemblies reduce static compressive stresses at the support point and cushion the
OPGW cable against the dynamic stress of Aeolian vibration.
