Fiber Splicing Trailers

FiberLite® Pod Tradesman™

Compact Fiber Splicing Trailer

The most compact fiber splicing trailer in the FiberLite® lineup — purpose-built for jobs that don't require XL-scale workspace. Easier to tow, easier to maneuver on tight job sites, and backed by the same fiberglass body, Onan genset, and FiberLite craftsmanship as the full-size XL Tradesman.

Everything You Need

The Pod Tradesman's 9′ × 5.5′ interior is efficiently outfitted for a single technician or compact crew — streetside cabinetry with a single-door cabinet, four-drawer module, and full-length 42″ countertop, two overhead storage cabinets, a 3″ × 8″ cable slot at the rear door, and the same Onan CMM EFI 5500 genset with 30-gallon CARB/EPA-compliant fuel cell that powers the XL Tradesman. Two slider windows on both sides bring in natural light and ventilation. The silver hammertone powder coat cabinet finish is durable and easy to wipe down after long days in the field.
