Wisconsin-based TechLogix Networx, a specialist in innovative audio-visual, security and datacom solutions, has announced the launch of OSPFiber, simplifying outdoor fiber optic cable runs with a single cable rated for direct burial, FTTH (fiber-to-the-home/fiber-to-the-business) drop and aerial scenarios. OSPFiber is a cost-effective, easy-to-integrate solution for outdoor ISP, broadband and network applications.
