Customer wants temporary cabling between two buildings (about 30 feet
apart).
They plan to trench later this year so this is supposed to be
"temporary".
I need to put up a couple of cat5e right now, but I just found out that
one tenant will want to add more stuff soon (50pr cat3 and a couple
more cat5e).
I found some aerial tubing that looks like a great idea (flex tube with
an aerial cable attached). It's called Strand-guard Flexcor by Arnco.
That seems like a good idea.

I would like to find a source for this or something similar in small
lengths. One source I found only mentioned reels of 2400 ft, while I
only need about 50 ft.

Is this something electrical supply houses might have? I will be making
phone calls tomorrow but I figure someone here might have a quicker or
better solution.

Thanks
Charles

It will be. Equipment at both ends will be fried by any
nearby ( <0.5sec ) lightning strike unless it's properly
protected (grounded) at both ends.
