Find auction available cable placer trucks — purpose built for telecom installation, aerial stringing and fiber deployment — on our CTOS Auctions marketplace.
Why Choose Cable Placer Equipment at CTOS Auctions?
Custom Truck One Source supports the full lifecycle of specialized trucks and equipment — from new builds and rental inventory to used sales, service, parts and liquidation via auctions.
The CTOS Auctions “Cable Placer” category is for trucks designed specifically for telecom applications — including aerial installations of fiber-optic and strand cable networks. For example cable placer trucks can boom while moving, increasing installation efficiency.
