PEDLOCK® Universal Buried Distribution Pedestals Mean Lower Costs

Lightning, corrosion, flooding, fire, impact, temperature extremes, dust, insects, ground acids and chemicals are just a few of the things that can eat away your profits.

PEDLOCK pedestals provide superior environmental protection of splice connections, terminal blocks and other OSP hardware resulting in lowered costs, reduced maintenance and improved network reliability. Over 30 years of pedestal development, laboratory testing and extensive field use by Bell, Independent and RUS Telcos have produced the industry's most trusted non-metallic buried distribution closure.
