What is COD?

Multiple Channel Cable Duct

COD is unified inner pipe and outer pipe. How and which size inner pipe type can be possible to combination as customer’s any request.

Material of Polyethylene (PE)

Both inner and outer pipe are made of PE. It is flexible and can be coiled over 500m. That means COD is possible to easy transport and reduce labor cost. This can be fast installation and down the construction cost.

Telecommunication Company

This new product was proven their great economics and convenient installation than any other system by all of telecommunication companies.

Services

1) Easy installation

The inner ducts have longitudinal ridges on their inside surfaces andprovide a low coefficient of friction, allowing fiber optic cables and othertype cables or wires to be easily pulled through them.

2) Reducing labor cost

COD allows an overall reduction in delivery and cable installation costs.The manifold configuration of COD insures high structural integrity overthe entire length of the conduit sections.

3) Reduced connecting points between the duct segments

A reduced number of connections can be reduced working cost andminimized the possibility of leakage.

Services

4) Great flexibility

COD made of polyethylene, therefore has great flexibility. It can be easy and speedy installation. Even though like a mountain area, curve section or narrow section, COD can be possible easy and fast works.

5) Crushing strength & advanced safety

The COD withstand external pressures on its outer surface 3 times greater than conventional plastic ducts. Its strength and flexibility have proven to provide an added measure of protection when installed in uneven terrain, underground spaces and on bridge are connections.

6) Various combination of inner-ducts

Various combinations of sub-ducts are available so that duct runs can be customized to meet your needs.
