How to wrap fiber optic cables around power poles

Optical attached cable

OverviewEtymologyHistoryTechnologyLashed cableUsesAlternativesIn the media

Optical attached cable (OPAC) is a type of fibre-optic cable that is installed by being attached to a host conductor along overhead power lines. The attachment system varies and can include wrapping, lashing or clipping the fibre-optic cable to the host. Installation is typically performed using a specialised piece of equipment that travels along the host conductor from pole to pole or tower to tower, wrapping, clipping or la

SkyWrap – attached optical cable for aerial power lines

SkyWrap provides a retro-fit solution for installing a fiber optic cable on overhead power lines. The cable is small and imposes minimal additional load on the overhead line conductors, poles and towers.
