Hoisting grips are essential for managing broadband cable installations, providing secure strain relief and controlled lifting during aerial, underground, and building-entry pulls. Available in both lace-up and pre-laced configurations, these grips encase the cable jacket with a durable woven mesh that distributes load evenly and prevents crushing, stretching, or sheath damage during handling. This ensures cables remain protected throughout installation and long-term operation.
In broadband network construction, hoisting grips are used when deploying fiber optic cables, coax distribution lines, trunk cables, and feeder runs. Pre-laced grips offer fast, consistent installation for new cable deployment, while lace-up versions allow technicians to apply the grip after connectors are installed or in tight-access environments. They are widely used in pole-line work, pedestal drops, central office installations, data centers, headend facilities, and aerial strand placements.
Launch 3 Telecom provides lace-up and pre-laced hoisting grips engineered for the broadband industry’s demanding environments. Offered in various diameter ranges, mesh strengths, and load capacities, these grips meet the needs of contractors, utility crews, fiber installers, and field technicians building and maintaining high-speed communication networks. Ideal for fiber expansion projects, HFC infrastructure upgrades, rural broadband builds, and municipal network rollouts.
