Technical Specications
The FieldSmart FDP Pedestal is a value added version of an Emerson BD5 distribution
pedestal. This style pedestal is a round-cornered, square-design telephone distribution
pedestal accepted for use by the RDUP (formerly RUS). The pedestal has been modied
to accommodate the use of ber optic distribution and drop splices.
This pedestal is designed to accommodate outside plant cables with a loose tube/buffer
tube construction. It can handle both armored and non-armored cables. If cables are to
be installed in a ring cut/mid-span opening conguration, then only cables capable of
passing the RDUP mid-span criteria of the PE-91 specication are allowed.
Included in this pedestal are: a splice tray bracket, one splice tray, a dielectric wrap
around shield, radius limiting spools, Velcro style cable management, cable securing zip
ties and a shield isolation bonding/grounding bracket assembly.
