ASU 8 Core Fiber Optic Cable Mini Span 80M 100M 120M
The ASU 8 Core Fiber Optic Cable is a highly efficient, lightweight, and completely non-metallic self-supporting aerial cable designed for short-span outdoor telecommunications. Featuring a compact unicore (single loose tube) structure, this cable houses 8 high-performance single-mode G.652.D fiber cores inside a jelly-filled central tube, providing excellent transmission stability and protection against water ingress.
Engineered for fast, cost-effective aerial installations, the ASU cable is reinforced with two parallel Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) rods as strength members embedded directly into the outer polyethylene (PE) jacket. Its 100% dielectric, non-metallic design guarantees total immunity to electromagnetic interference and lightning strikes, making it the perfect choice for last-mile Fiber to the Home (FTTH) rollouts and power line co-locations.
- Last-Mile FTTH Aerial Drop Links: Quickly deployed directly from distribution boxes to subscriber premises using standard aerial pole lines.
- Short-Span Rural & Suburban Networks: Perfect for spanning distances between utility poles (typically 50m to 100m depending on weather loads) without the need for an extra messenger steel wire.
- High-Voltage Corridor Co-location: Safely installed alongside high-voltage overhead power distribution lines without risking electrical tracking or lightning damage.
- CCTV & Security Network Feeds: Connecting elevated outdoor security cameras and traffic monitoring systems back to localized server nodes.

- 100% Non-Metallic Safety: No steel components mean zero electrical conductivity, eliminating grounding requirements and securing the link against lightning strikes.
- Ultra-Lightweight & Compact: The minimal outer diameter and single-tube profile reduce wind load and cable sag, placing minimal physical stress on existing utility poles.
- Dual Parallel FRP Reinforcement: Provides excellent tensile strength and anti-bending properties, protecting the internal optical fibers from stretching and mechanical strain.
- Cost-Effective Aerial Deployment: The self-supporting structure allows for rapid, one-step installation without needing steel lashing wires, significantly reducing labor and hardware costs.
With 13 years of specialized production experience, Shandong Yibo Optronics Technology Co., Ltd. manufactures utility-grade ASU cables designed to meet rigorous telecom requirements.
- Optimized FRP Sizing: We can customize the diameter of the parallel FRP rods to match the exact weather, wind, and span requirements of your regional installation environment.
- Rigid Quality Assurance: Every batch of ASU cable is verified in our independent testing facility for tensile pulling limits, crush tolerance, and water penetration before being spooled onto reinforced export reels.
