[pdf] Self-supporting aerial fig. 8-cable with steel suspension strand for installation on poles up to 75 meters. Loose tube design filled with a thixotropic gel. Outer sheath is made of UV resistance PE jacket. Figure-8 self-supporting structure provide high tensile strength and enables. Metallic Aerial Self-Supporting (MASS) Cable is an alternative solution used for installing optical cable on medium and high voltage power lines. It is typically used when the existing phase or ground wire replacement is not possible or economical. The loose tube design with a FRP member and steel tape for provides stable performance over a wide temperature range and is compatible with. Direct buried cable can be buried directly into the ground in a trench or using a vibratory plow.
