OPGW fiber optic cable: the “smart nerve” on power lines, the 24/48 core air guardian

In the steel forest of the high-voltage power grid, OPGW fiber optic cable (optical fiber composite overhead ground wire) can be called the “double champion” – it is not only a lightning arrester to protect the safety of transmission lines, but also an information highway set up in the cloud. Especially the 24 core and 48 core specifications inject powerful intelligent energy into modern power grids:

One cable dual job, efficient integrationSafety Shield: Replace traditional overhead ground wires with high-strength aluminum alloy/aluminum clad steel outer layer to resist lightning strikes, protect the safety of the underlying wires, and minimize the risk of power accidents.

Information artery: The fiber optic unit with flexible core count (24/48 cores) is deeply embedded in the cable, and the insulated all dielectric layer isolates strong electrical interference, ensuring pure and unobstructed communication signals and achieving millisecond level transmission of power data.
Fearless of natural dangers, as firm as a rock

Disaster resistant expert: Special metal stranded wire endows ultra-high tensile strength, facing the heavy pressure of ice and snow and the tearing of strong winds; The corrosion resistant outer layer is not afraid of salt fog and acid rain, and the polar environment is as stable as Mount Tai from -40 ℃ to+80 ℃.

Longevity Model: The all metal structure and water blocking technology prevent moisture intrusion, with a lifespan of over 30 years, significantly reducing maintenance costs and operational risks.
The aerial cornerstone of smart grid

Abundant bandwidth: The 24/48 core design reserves ample expansion space, making it easy to carry massive services such as smart meters, line monitoring, and fault location, helping the digital upgrade of the power grid.

Economic efficiency: synchronous replacement of ground wires during construction, without the need for additional fiber optic cables, saving time, effort, and cost; Ultra low loss (≤ 0.22dB/km) ensures lossless direct signal transmission over thousands of miles.
Core application scenarios

Power dispatch automation | Substation video monitoring | Online monitoring of transmission lines | Grid connected communication of new energy stations
OPGW fiber optic cable weaves a secure and intelligent communication network on the 10000 volt high voltage line with a combination of rigidity and flexibility. Choosing 24/48 core OPGW is to equip the power grid with a “smart eye” and turn the silver wire of the iron tower into a vibrant pulse of the digital age!
