What is OSP?

Outside Plant (OSP) refers to the physical telecommunications network infrastructure that exists between the central office and the end user. This includes fiber optic cables, ducts, manholes, handholes, cabinets, splice closures, and all associated civil and optical components that form the backbone of modern telecommunications networks.

Apps Solutions delivers comprehensive OSP services — from initial survey and route design through installation, splicing, testing, and final commissioning. Our experienced field teams and project managers ensure that every deployment meets the highest standards of quality, safety, and documentation.
