AFLs Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) wedge dead end improves the ease and speed of
installing OPGW as compared to bolted and formed wire devices. The wedge dead end
is sold mostly assembled and only requires connecting three components (the body,
top wedge and locking pin) during preparation. The unique cam action in the pivoting
cable guide ensures proper alignment of the wedges prior to loading and the wedges
automatically provide the necessary gripping action to meet the holding strength
requirements. A removal tool (sold separately) is available to unlock the wedges for
situations requiring additional adjustment of the dead end.
Advantages
Three loose components as compared
to 15+ with bolted dead ends
No bolts to torque self locking wedge
design secures the cable
Eliminates human error associated with
proper torque on bolted dead ends
Shorter and easier to install than
formed wire dead ends
Optional removal tool allows wedges to
be easily unlocked when required
Quicker installation times as compared
to bolted and formed wire models
No special tools required for installation
Features
Range: 0.375 - 0.750 in. (9.5 - 19.0 mm)
Designed for 95% of the cables rated
breaking strength up to 25,000 lbs.
(11,340 kg)
Cable Guide (not optional) to train
OPGW down or around structure
Optional link plate available for extension from structures
Approved for use with AlumaCore,
CentraCore and HexaCore OPGW designs

HIBUS Series
OPGW Suspension
The Hinged Bushing Suspension is designed to reduce the static and
dynamic stress at the attachment point on all types of OPGW fiber cables
without the use of protective rods. Eliminating the need for the rods was
achieved by the use of a unique bushing system that allows the OPGW
cable to better withstand the effects of aeolian vibration. Test results
have proven its ability to provide superior protection for your fiber system. The hinged concept on the suspension configuration provides self
alignment of the housing halves. All of the hardware is captive except for
the attachment pin.
Test reports available include vibration test, slip test, ultimate strength
and angle test.
Clamp rated slip load at 20% of RBS for cables with less than 25,000
lbs breaking load. Contact AFL for slip rating on cables greater than
25,000 lbs RBS.
Features
Self-aligning housing halves
Stress relief bushing system
Aluminum clamp body with captive stainless steel mounting bolts
Galvanized steel mounting pin with cotter pin
Line angles up to 20 for single unit, up to 40 for two units using
an 18" yoke plate.

Mechanical Suspensions
Single and Double
Supporting spans of Optical Ground Wire cable through a wide
range of line angle changes, the unique design of the lightweight
AFL Mechanical Suspension installs easily while supporting vertical, transverse, longitudinal unbalanced loads and angle pulls
without damaging the cable strands or affecting optical fiber
performance. Breakaway bolts ensure proper installation torque
while eliminating the need for specialized torque wrenches. The
assemblies are designed for fast installation to minimize costs.
Features
SINGLE SUSPENSION
Slip strengths:
Single Suspension > 1,500 lbs.
Double Suspension > 3,000 lbs.
(depending on cable design)
Vertical load rating: Single Suspension = 25,000 lbs.
Double Suspension = 50,000 lbs.
Compact design: Single Suspension = 34" in length
Double Suspension = 48" in length
Meets IEEE 1138 Vibration and Galloping tests
Ideal for helicopter installation
Unique keeper design allows installation without removing bolts
(fewer loose parts)
Grounding lug included, eliminating additional accessories for
electrical bonding
Shorter than formed wire suspensions, allowing installation
from the support structure
Standard assembly includes suspension unit and rods

The trunnion support clamp is used to secure the OPGW cable to a trunnion type bracket
configuration. Either mounted directly to the tower or an insulator, the clamp provides
enough force to maintain the designed slip load without causing cable attenuation. For
more information, contact factory regarding slip load capabilities.

Vibration Damper
Vibration Dampers work to cancel damaging fatigue caused by wind-induced vibration.
Most tuned damping devices operate best near their natural frequencies. AFL vibration
dampers are designed for efficient transfer and dissipation of energy over a wide spectrum of frequencies. They feature all aluminum clamp construction to match expansion/
contraction of conductor and break-away bolts for easy installation and proper torque.
