The carriers are maintenance-free, dirt repellent, and come in seven styles and 42 widths. The enclosed tube shields cables in harsh environments. Snap-open crossbars simplify cable installation. There are various mounting-bracket, cableseparation, and strainrelief options. The system handles lengths from 656 to 1,312 ft and can span 26 ft unsupported. For lengths exceeding 26 ft, guide troughs or manufacturer's Auto-Glide System keep weatherresistant chain in line.
