PowerGuide AccuTube+ Rollable Ribbon RR ADSS Cable
The PowerGuide AccuTube+ Rollable Ribbon (RR) ADSS Cable is a totally gel free, double jacket, all dielectric self supporting cable featuring 144 fibers up to 864 optical fibers in a ribbon in loose tube cable design. Lightera combines its leading ADSS cable design with its field proven rollable ribbon technology offering mass fusion ribbon splicing. To form these ribbons, individual 250 μm fibers are partially bonded to each other at predetermined points. These ribbons are placed into a totally dry and flexible buffer tube to construct a loose tube cable construction suitable for self-support aerial installations. Aramid yarns in the cable jacket as strength members allows potential for increased cable spans in a lighter and smaller cable construction.

Why the PowerGuide AccuTube+ RR ADSS Cable?
With up to 864 fibers in a single cable, the PowerGuide AccuTube+ RR ADSS Cable offers exceptional carrying capacity for high-growth, high-bandwidth applications. This cable’s rollable ribbon design helps users achieve highly efficient and cost-effective mass fusion splicing along with easy individual fiber breakout.
The PowerGuide AccuTube+ RR ADSS Cable features the same high performance and reliability as it’s flat ribbon gel filled counterparts with the added benefit of improved labor costs and splicing times by removing the gel. The PowerGuide AccuTube+ RR ADSS offers significantly lower overall cable weight, resulting in easier handling and lower operating tensions on poles. This reduction in cable weight and operating tensions may enable the use of less costly, lighter duty attachment hardware.
