What is Outside Plant (OSP)?
The Outside Plant refers to all the physical cable, poles, supporting structures, and equipment necessary to connect a central office or distribution point to the end-user. Essentially, it is everything outside the internal network of the building. Our comprehensive OSP services cover both aerial and underground installations, ensuring seamless, robust network deployment regardless of the terrain or environment.
