Prysmian Simplifies the Deployment of Aerial Broadband Networks

Prysmian's all-dielectric, self-supporting (ADSS) fiber optic cable product line is complex, as cable selection must be tailored to each specific network application. Several factors influence cable design and selection, including the maximum span between poles, installation sag (ground clearance), and regional weather conditions, including ice buildup on cables and wind speed effects.

In addition to selecting cables based on application requirements, it is essential to choose pole attachment hardware that matches the ADSS cable's outside diameter. As a result, nearly every ADSS cable design requires a unique set of pole attachment hardware. 

ezPlan™ Aerial Broadband System

To make it easier to select ADSS cables and hardware, we introduced the ezPlan™ Aerial Broadband System to simplify aerial broadband deployment. It features the most popular single-mode ADSS cable fiber counts and offers a streamlined Bill of Materials that includes cable, pole-line hardware, and closures.

Build and Order your Bill of Materials in 4 Easy Steps

  1. Choose your weather load.
  2. Identify the cables that meet most of your network’s maximum span length requirements.
  3. Confirm that our standard installation sag (1.5%) meets your clearance requirements.
  4. Contact your local distributor(s) for sag and tension details, as well as quotations for cable, hardware, and closures.
