Charles Industries, LLC Fiber Interconnect Pedestals for Hardened Drops BDO

Charles BDO Interconnect Distribution Pedestals for Hardened Fiber Drop Cables (BDO-IXC HD) provide a drop-side "interconnect panel" for support-ing drop cables using the Corning brand OptiTap® hardened fiber drop connector. The BDO-IXC HD Pedestal is ideal for fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) network deployments as well as multi-tenant cell site, campus or strip mall environments where the customer requires high-capacity fiber bandwidth for data and video broadband services, wireless backhaul, private networks or data and video broadband services. With a built-in OptiTap-SC® adapter bulkhead, the BDO-IXC HD pedestals facilitate fast and easy provisioning of fiber services to the end customer's equipment. Fiber drops can be turned up, moved or disconnected on an "as needed" basis; giving service providers added flexibility in their efforts to provide broadband voice, data and video services to customers whose bandwidth requirements may change seasonally or for test access purposes. BDO Interconnect Pedestals feature a non-metallic construction and open architecture design with a flood-proof outer dome that offers superior OSP protection against floods, fire, dirt, insects and impact. Technicians have open 360º access to internal splicing and interconnect bulkhead areas. BDO Pedestals feature an expanded-capacity split base designed to easily install around conduit-fed cable bundles in new construction or rehab situations.
