Charles Industries’ Z02 Non-Louvered Vertical Plastic Pedestal provides mounting facilities and security for fiber taps and RF passive components used in Fiber-to-the-Home or coaxial based access networks. The pedestal is engineered for self-supporting direct buried installation or with the optional galvanized equipment mounting stake. Network access equipment can be affixed directly to the slotted thru–hole provisions integrated into the equipment mounting stake. These pedestals are molded from a polyethylene resin specifically designed for outside plant environments, resisting impact, ultraviolet and environmental degradation.
