Two types are available: a trough with only cable protection features and a trough with an indicator function that incorporates LEDs!
Delivery Title: Development of a "Slim Trench" with Indicator Function Furukawa Electric Co., Ltd. has developed a surface-mounted cable trench (indicator trench and flat trench) with an indicator function that can be installed on the road surface. ■Background■ In Japan today, discussions are underway for smart cities aimed at optimizing infrastructure and facilities to enhance convenience and comfort. In smart cities, various electronic devices are installed throughout the urban area, while communication and power cables, as well as water and gas lines, are buried beneath the pavement. One of the challenges in smart cities is to install new equipment while avoiding these existing facilities and ensuring cable routes. ■Product Features■ This product has a thickness of 55.5mm, which is about half the thickness compared to the minimum size class of 130mm for concrete cable trenches, allowing for a reduction in the amount of ground excavation. This thickness is comparable to paving materials such as interlocking blocks and tactile paving blocks, enabling replacement with existing paving materials without significant changes to the foundation. Additionally, by integrating the indicator and cable conduit, simple installation is possible.

basic information
The current lineup consists of two types: a flat trough with cable protection functionality and an indicator trough with an integrated LED indicator function. In the future, we are considering the development of multi-purpose systems that convey crossing timing from the ground to individuals who have difficulty distinguishing signals (such as those with visual impairments or the elderly). 【Product Overview】 ■Model Number: UT-1250-N ■Dimensions: Width 121 × Length 1245 mm, Height 55.5 mm ■Cable Storage Dimensions: 14.5 × 26 mm × 2 holes ■Load Capacity: T-6 *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
