U-TECK to Highlight Telcom Safety Solutions at OSP Expo® 2012

Nov. 6, 2012 - PRLog -- Fayetteville, N.C. – U-TECK (http://www.uteck.com), a developer of specialized products for the telecommunications, utility, municipal and transportation industries, will highlight telecom safety solutions at OSP Expo® 2012 (http://www.ospmag.com/expo). Held Nov. 14-15 at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, the OSP Expo is the industry-leading event dedicated to telecom network education and delivering solutions, products, and technologies for today’s rapid wireless and wireline network evolution.

At booth 225, U-TECK will showcase four different categories of solutions that simplify everyday jobs in the field and keep workers safe:

Cable Management: Whether OSP professionals are looking to prevent gas leaks or more easily store cable reels, U-TECK offers several innovative cable management solutions. At OSP Expo, U-TECK will exhibit products including the Reel Deal™ Cable Caddy and Buried Closure Protective Housing (http://www.uteck.com/buried_closures.html).

FTTH Solutions: U-TECK’s Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) solutions range from fire retardant backboards (http://www.uteck.com/backboards.html) for telecom and datacom equipment installations, to the Magic Wrap® (http://www.uteck.com/magic_wrap.html) emergency repair kit. Due to the growth of broadband technology, safety in handling, splicing, and maintaining fiber optics is essential.

Manhole Safety: The greatest hazards in manholes are not visible to the human eye – namely toxic gases and fumes. U-TECK provides equipment such as gas detectors (http://www.uteck.com/gas_detectors.html) and blowers (http://www.uteck.com/blowers_hoses_ut_vaf_3000.html) to help workers practice the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s “test, purge and ventilate” routine prior to entering a confined space.

Safety Gear: U-TECK supplies a variety of useful, high-quality safety solutions that are vital to any worker’s toolbox. At OSP Expo, U-TECK will have products such as protective eyewear, safety vests, gloves and hardhats on display.

Russ Mason III, U-TECK’s vice president of sales, said, “Although U-TECK’s customers span several industries, we have always been very in-tune with the needs of the telecommunication field, as the majority of our first clients came from this market. We are looking forward to participating in OSP Expo 2012 – the show’s 20th anniversary – and showcasing a wide range of both new and well-established solutions.”
