When to Use Hardware
Dead End Assembly:
• Used whenever a cable should not slip:

  • Cable start and end points
  • Where line angles exceed 20°
  • Road, river, railroad crossings
  • Closure locations

• Different types available dependent upon cable design and application
• Most attachment hardware is used with 5/8" pole line hardware

All-Dielectric, Self Supporting (ADSS) Aerial Loose Tube Fiber Optic Cable
Tangent and Suspension Supports:
• Typically used in small line angle situations (<20°, depending on type)
• Provides vertical support, not designed to support cable tension
• Multiple types depending span length and application
• Allows cable slippage during imbalanced load situations

All-Dielectric, Self Supporting (ADSS) Aerial Loose Tube Fiber Optic CableAll-Dielectric, Self Supporting (ADSS) Aerial Loose Tube Fiber Optic Cable
Vibration Dampers:

• ADSS cables can experience Aeolian vibration under certain circumstances
• Circumstances conducive to Aeolian vibration
• Laminar wind flow, Wide open spaces, Light winds, High tensions
• Vibration dampers minimize the effects of this vibration
