Outdoor Armored Direct Burial (OSP-DB) Pre-Terminated Assembly

Our Outdoor Armored Direct Burial (OSP-DB) Pre-Terminated Fiber Optic Cable Assemblies provide a highly durable and cost-effective solution for direct burial fiber optic installations without the need for additional conduit. These assemblies feature a corrugated steel armored design with a heavy-duty polyethylene (PE) outer jacket, offering exceptional protection against moisture, UV exposure, crushing, and rodent damage.

With a water-blocking tape and gel-free construction, these cables are optimized for underground installations, including campus fiber backbones, municipal networks, and industrial facilities. Unlike standard outdoor cables, these rugged assemblies can be buried directly into the ground without requiring an external protective casing, reducing installation time and cost.

These pre-terminated fiber optic assemblies are ideal for:

  • Fiber backbone connections in underground installations

  • Headend terminations for outdoor fiber networks

  • Secure fiber pathways in rodent-prone areas

  • Aerial installations when lashed to a guy wire

For applications where conduit is still required, a minimum 3” conduit with sweeping bends is recommended to accommodate the fiber cable’s breakout.
