WARNING Buried Fiber Optic Cable Route Sign – Call 811 – 8x12 Aluminum

A backhoe through your fiber route is more expensive than this sign by several orders of magnitude.

The CGAP Safety “Warning – Cable Route – Buried Fiber Optic Cable – Call 811 Before You Dig” sign is a high-visibility marker for buried fiber and other communications cables. The bold WARNING header, safety orange background, and large black lettering help contractors and property owners recognize that a critical cable route is present before they start digging.

The “ROUTE” label with directional arrows at the bottom shows the direction of the buried cable, making it easier for locators and maintenance crews to follow the line along a right-of-way, fence, or roadway.

This 8 x 12 inch sign is manufactured from rust-resistant aluminum for long-term outdoor use in fields, easements, and roadside installations. The durable construction outlasts thin plastic markers and improvised posts that fade or crack in the sun.

Use this sign as part of your damage-prevention and 811 program to help reduce accidental cuts, outages, and costly repairs for buried fiber optic cable routes.

CGAP Safety is an American safety sign manufacturer dedicated to straightforward, durable signage that helps utilities and ISPs see the gap and close the gap in their field safety and damage-prevention programs.
