An instant boost to productivity.

Choosing the right Cable Reel Trailer comes down to the job and tasks at hand. The self-loading 12k Cable Trailer is built for speed and efficiency on telecom projects, figure-8ing cable at up to 750 ft./min., lessening crew requirements and handling reels up to 12,000 lbs. These units are fast, nimble, and made for high-volume fiber work. 

 

For heavier transmission and distribution jobs, the self-loading 20k Cable Trailer delivers the needed strength for T&D projects with a 20,000-lb. payload and power payout/rewind. It’s built to muscle through utility-grade cable installations with ease.
