    Clearfield (NASDAQ:CLFD) announced an expanded product offering within its line of FieldShield Ruggedized Microduct. Intended to simplify the placement of fiber, FieldShield Aerial 500 Microduct is designed to be crush and tension resistant, and UV stabilized for outdoor environments. It's also designed to integrate into pole-mounted distribution terminals to provide an aerial pole-to-pole distribution and last-mile drop to the customer premises.

    Designed for GR-3155 compliance, the 10mm figure-8 style microduct is intended to deploy fiber the same way an aerial drop is installed with the use of either a PLP (DE 2525) or other suitable hardware. Designed to comply with North American storm and ice loading standards, the 3.18mm stranded galvanized wire strength member is intended for spanning lengths up to 500 feet or lashing to an existing support strand.
