OPGW System

Prysmian is a world-leader in the design of Optical Power Ground Wire cables. These cables can be used on transmission lines as a ground wire, while providing an optical fiber link within the same cable. The combination of these features makes OPGW cables a very cost-effective solution on any transmission line where data or telecom links are required.

 

Customers who choose the Prysmian OPGW System can be sure that their decision will lead to a successful experience during installation and operation. The main advantages of Prysmian OPGW are the following:
