MaxCell – Everywhere Innerduct Solutions

Supplier Overview

With 20 years of industry leading technology, MaxCell® is one of the fastest growing brands in the network construction industry. Accepted by the Rural Utilities Service (RUS) and installed by the largest global telecom companies and cable Management Service Organizations (MSOs), MaxCell is the standard for maximizing conduit space while reducing total system costs.

The only flexible fabric innerduct solutions designed specifically for the network construction industry, MaxCell products conform to the shape of cables placed within, greatly reducing the wasted space associated with rigid innerduct options. Network owners and builders use MaxCell to increase cable density by as much as 300%. Faced with the challenge of deploying new infrastructure while minimizing costs, using MaxCell products reduces the number of conduits required for new network construction, minimizes the need for additional conduit in overlay applications, and enables incremental deployment to match system requirements.

Our Solutions

From new construction to the most difficult overlays, MaxCell creates pathways and place cables in all environments.

Bridges and Unique Obstacles

Bridges and Unique Obstacles

Problem: Conduit space is difficult to access. Exposure to elements causes expansion and contraction of HDPE conduit and microducts.

Solution: Lay MaxCell in overlay or new construction to optimize space and allow for future pathways. MaxCell resists expansion/contraction from temperature changes.

Curb to Building

Problem: Existing PVC or HDPE short runs <500 ft. Poor design with numerous sweeps and bends that make placing conduit or microduct difficult.

Solution: Place MaxCell in empty duct. Overlay MaxCell in existing congested duct. Avoid new construction, while guaranteeing quick deployment.

Occupied Conduit

Problem: Existing outer ducts occupied with cables and/or HDPE rigid innerducts. Desire not to utilize last empty duct(s) (high congestion). Microducts difficult to blow in occupied ducts with a high fill ratio.

Solution: Pull MaxCell over existing cables or innerducts (overlay) allowing additional cable(s) to be pulled in dedicated pathway.

Space Recovery/Renewal

Problem: Congested duct typically means copper must be removed prior to upgrading with fiber. Single duct in outer duct is wasting space.

Solution: Overbuild with MaxCell and place fiber prior to removing copper. Pull out copper and pull in MaxCell. Utilize the MaxSpace recovery and renewal services.
