Anchor aerial fiber safely

A fiber dead-end is a fitting that anchors aerial fiber cable at a pole or at the end of a span, holding the cable's tension without damaging the fibers inside.
Fiber Dead-Ends

Dead-ends, clamps, and pole hardware.

Preformed dead-ends, tension and suspension clamps, drop wire clamps, and pole hardware keep aerial fiber secure, correctly tensioned, and safe.

What It Fits

Match to equipment and site.

Cable type

Fittings must match cable construction, such as ADSS, Figure-8, or drop cable.

Cable diameter

Dead-ends and clamps are sized to a diameter range.

Span length and load

Longer spans and heavier cable need stronger fittings.

Poles

Hardware must suit the pole material and condition.

Closures

Aerial splice closures often mount near dead-ends.

How to Choose

Decisions that get the choice right.

01

Diameter range

Confirm the fitting suits your exact cable.

02

Span and tension

Use fittings rated for the design load.

03

Position

Choose dead-ends for ends and angles, suspension clamps for straight pass-through.

04

Environment

Corrosion resistance matters for long outdoor life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions

Why can't I just tie the cable to the pole?

Fiber must not be pinched or over-tensioned. Purpose-made fittings hold it without damaging the fibers.

What is the difference between a dead-end and a suspension clamp?

A dead-end holds the cable at its end or at an angle, while a suspension clamp supports it where it passes straight through.

Does the cable type matter?

Yes. Fittings must be matched to cable construction and diameter.
