Outdoor (OSP) Armored Direct Burial MTP Trunk Cable Assemblies

Our Outdoor (OSP) Armored Direct Burial MTP Trunk Cable Assemblies are designed for harsh outdoor environments, offering maximum durability and protection for fiber optic networks. Built with Corning Altos® fiber and MTP® connectors from US Conec®, these assemblies are optimized for long-term, permanent outdoor installations.

These cables feature a heavy-duty polyethylene (PE) jacket, corrugated steel armor, and water-blocking swellable tape, making them rodent-resistant, waterproof, and highly crush-resistant. Ideal for direct burial in trenches, they eliminate the need for conduit, reducing both installation time and costs. Additionally, they can be overhead lashed to a guy wire or secured to buildings for added versatility in OSP (Outside Plant) applications.
