Questions & Answers

Q
What’s the difference between indoor and indoor/outdoor assemblies?
A
Indoor assemblies are rated for plenum or riser spaces and optimized for controlled environments. Indoor/outdoor assemblies use UV-resistant and water-blocking materials, allowing them to transition between outdoor pathways and indoor spaces without needing a splice point.
Q
Where are these assemblies manufactured?
A
These assemblies are proudly made in the USA, ensuring the highest quality and adherence to industry standards.
Q
Why choose a lower strand assembly over a higher strand assembly?
A
Lower strand assemblies are ideal when you only need a limited number of connections, keeping costs, size, and cable management simpler. Higher strand counts are used for backbone or high-density applications where many connections must run through a single cable.
Q
Can these cables be run indoors?
A
Polyethylene (PE) OSP cables are limited to a maximum of 50 feet indoors due to fire code restrictions. Longer indoor runs require plenum or riser-rated cables.
