InDuct
Applied in ducts, conduits and trays with no risk of rodent attacks. Can also be lashed.
InArmor
Designed for high reliability in harsh environments with potential mechanical impact. Applied in all ground types, swamps, and harsh rivers.
BlownIn
Designed for air blowing in ducts and microducts for building reliable underground communication networks.
InWater
Designed for underwater application with increased crush and tensile loads.
InAir Figure 8
Used for cost-effective one-step aerial installation mostly in rural areas where the spans between poles are not long .
InControl
Applied in substations for control purposes.
InHome FTTH
Used to create communication lines between the common distribution box and a location inside the building (including vertical runs), between entrances or corridors in office buildings.
InDrop FTTH
Applied for aerial installation on transmission towers, lightning poles, between buildings and structures for communication networks in rural areas.
All-dielectric outside plant (OSP) cable is typically deployed in ducts. It can also be lashed to a messenger wire for aerial installation and can be attached to bridges or the lining inside a tunnel. The NESC permits OSP cable to be run up to 50 feet inside a building. Using fiberglass yarn lowers cost and provides a degree of rodent protection.

InDuct FiberGlass is an all-dielectric and UV-resistant design which can have up to 864 fibers. Its maximum rated design tension can reach up to 607 lb and crush is 126 lb/in.
The cable consists of a stranded core with a central strength member (FRP), dry loose tubes with optical fibers and PE fillers (where applicable). The stranded core is fixed by water-swellable yarns. Fiberglass yarns are laid over the stranded core.
Typical application:
— It can be pulled into underground ducts and sewer pipes
— It can be installed along bridges, tunnels and other structures
— It can be installed into indoor/outdoor cable conduits and trays
— It can also be lashed
This fiberglass cable has a reduced weight and size, and it’s easy to install. Moreover, all Incab InDuct cables may be produced as flame-retardant.
