Spiral Vibration Damper: Innovation in ADSS Protection

A spiral vibration damper is a device used to control aeolian vibrations in ADSS cables. ADSS cables are fiber optic cables designed for aerial installations. Aeolian vibrations can lead to fatigue and potential damage over time. These vibrations are from wind-induced oscillations and other environmental conditions. The dampers install along the length of the cable
