Case Study
Cubis have been working with NI Railways and their lead contractors on their ongoing upgrade project for rail infrastructure across Northern Ireland. Cubis recently supplied it’s MULTIduct™ cable protection system and STAKKAbox™ Fortress network access chamber products on the Lisburn line track renewal, where it was used as part of a buried cable route installation for both power and signalling running alongside the track.
Cubis’ buried cable route system has been designed to offer a modern, lightweight, structural alternative to traditional methods of burying trackside cabling for telecoms, signalling and power. MULTIduct™ provides enhanced security due to the cabling being buried with access only available within the network access chamber. The easy to handle 1m long 4, 6 or 9 way ducting units weigh under 20kg and provide a 25% increase in cable capacity compared to traditional cable ducts. The unique ‘one click’ push fit connection makes the MULTIduct™ units fast and easy to install making them ideal for working at night with limited track possession time.
