Outdoor All-Dielectric Tube Cables

These single- and multi-tube cables are designed for use in creating tube cable infrastructures in outdoor environments where non-conductive elements are desired or required. The TOX & TOD series are for all normal OSP environments in duct and in direct buried applications below the frost line. The MSOS is designed for all normal OSP environments and in aerial or duct applications requiring enhanced thermal stability (i.e., on poles, refineries, industrial outdoor installations, or above frost lines/exposed to ambient air temperature changes).
