Superior Essex offers premises fiber cable products packaged in a BrakeBox design, which includes the innovative QuickCount footage marking and a variable resistance system that virtually eliminates reel over-spin and tangling. The BrakeBox packaging is a true advantage for installers who are pulling fiber cable in multiple locations. It not only stacks and travels better, it also protects the fiber cable better than an open reel. The box features two resistance mechanisms on both sides of the reel, each of which has three resistance settings. The variable brakes control back-tension preventing over-spin and tangling.
