  2. Key Attributes of AFL World LeaderDelivering end to end solutions focusing on the integration of telecommunication and utility based products and services; fiber optic, hardware, power, electronics, and various specialty applications. Global PresenceManufacturing facilities infour countries and servicingcustomers in over 100. Strong HeritageProven history driven byperformance, integrity,& delivering superior value.

  3. AFL Company & Market Overview Parent Company: 100% owned subsidiary of Fujikura Ltd Transitioned to 100% April, 200535% of FJK’s WW Telecom business ISO 9000 & 14001 certified Locations: >30 facilities in 4 countries Revenue: >$500 Million Employees: 3,800+ International Sales: AFL ships to>100 Countries 25% in international sales

  4. Fiber Optic Cable World Leader in Aerial Cable Largest installed base of OPGW and ADSS Most expansive product portfolio Loose Tube and Tight Buffered Downhole, Sensing, & Subsea Applications Specialty Cable MicroCore™ Cable SkyWrap™

  5. Aerial Solutions

  6. Metallic Optical Aerial Cables OPGW, OPPC and MASS

  7. Metallic Solutions for High Voltage Lines OPGW Optical Ground Wire Substitution of standard earth wire OPPC Optical Phase Conductor Substitution of standard phase conductor MASS Metallic Aerial Self-Supporting Additional Installation for Telecom Purpose only

  8. CentraCore AlumaCore MiniCore Slotted Core HexaCore Aerial Solutions OPGW • AFL is the world’s leading supplier • 150,000km - over 1/3 OPGW installed worldwide is AFL • Meets IEEE-1138 and IEC60794 specifications • Comprehensive range, • high fibre counts • small diameters • Also OPPC and MASS versions

  9. OPPC

  10. Top cover OPPC entry Splice module Upper sealing Top and bottom cup glued to the insulating body Insulating bodyfilled with silicone oil Lower sealing OFC entry Base plate Path of fibre tubes: Red – OFC ; white - OPPC New generation of composite separators(36 kV … 245 kV)

  11. Version: S H P 36 kV … 145 kV 245 kV 36 kV … 145 kV 245 kV 36 kV … 145 kV 245 kV Separator versions(36 kV … 245 kV)

  12. On-site installation(245 kV P type, France)

  13. Installation example(36 kV, line termination & T-branch)

  14. Installation example(72.5 kV separator on 63 kV line, line termination)

  15. OPPC in-line closure • Connects two OPPCs staying on high potential • All parts are identical to the Separator parts • Exception: Main body is a modified top cup • Suitable for the whole voltage level range – 36 kV to 245 kV • Installable on Tension and Suspension towers

  23. SkyWrap & Access Wrap

  24. SkyWrap …. its a proven solution • Approved by major utilities in Europe, Asia and North America • More than 25,000km installed since 1982 • In service in 40+ countries world-wide

  25. Robust and Reliable SkyWrap is not just for today • 30 year design life • In service >20yrs • Maintenance free • Lifetime support from AFL • Meets IEEE1594 SkyWrap is a fully-proven, robust and reliable long-term solution UK - 2005

  26. Installation Topography SkyWrap is in service in challenging environments all over the world with outstanding results Norway - 2001

  27. AccessWrap Access Wrap • AccessWrapis AFL wrap technology for broadband access or distribution networks • Uses SkyWrapexperience and technology to apply fibre optic cables to overhead lines • Optimised for use on MV power distribution lines: • 10kV to 50kV • Post insulators • Small conductors • Wood poles Norway – 33kV

  28. Technology Choice • Classic technology is ADSS – but many disadvantages • Reduces ground clearance • Imposes extra load on poles • Susceptible to vandalism, shotgun, fires and accidental third party damage • Only 1 ADSS per pole

  29. Benefits of AccessWrap • AccessWrap adds small dielectric cable to distribution line • Does not infringe existing clearance • Does not significantly increase loads on poles • Secure – protected from vandals and accidents • Buckshot resistant option • It uses 1 phase out of three • Capacity can be added incrementally

  30. Comparison with SkyWrap

  31. Comparison with SkyWrap • Smaller cable drum • Shorter counterbalance arm • Lightweight machine body • Remote controlled tug not used • Same technology • Smaller & lighter

  32. Meets IEEE1594 • Quick & Clean • Cost-effective • Low Risk • Reliable & secure Summary • Solves difficult access problems • Scaleable • Complete package • Lower environmental impact • Significant advantages over other technologies
