QUAZITE® offers two types of pads
to choose from: flat pads and handhole cabinet pads. Determine
the type of pad that will best suit your needs.
Flat pads and handhole cabinet pads offer different
advantages. Flat pads are light weight and require only a small
amount of site preparation. Handhole cabinet pads offer the
advantage of providing room to coil extra cable underneath
the equipment if needed. The multiple-piece cover serves as
an access panel to the cables underneath the cabinet and allows
easy addition of more equipment and service connections to
the cabinet.
Quazite’s engineering staff is
available to assist you in determining the proper pad for
your application. Throat sizes and insert locations on both
pads and handhole cabinet pads can be tailored to meet your
requirements.
Rather than using a traditional flat
pad for mounting telephone cabinets, some telecommunications
companies are now opting to use a standard QUAZITE® handhole
with a modified cover to fit the cabinet footprint. (Shown in
photo right.) This design provides some distinct advantages
over traditional pads. The space underneath the cover provides
room to store extra cable. Also, the split in the two-piece
cover lies at the edge of the cabinet and acts as an access
panel to the cables underneath the cabinet.
Telecom companies with future plans
to offer high-speed DSL, CATV or other telecommunications
or broadband services in addition to telephone service should
find the QUAZITE® handhole
cabinet pad attractive. The access panel and additional space
make it easy to add the necessary equipment and connections
to existing telephone cabinets rather than installing new infrastructure
to add services.
