24 Jan 2024 --- Connectivity product provider Clearfield has announced the availability of the CraftSmart Fiber Protection Vault. The new design eliminates current supply chain constraints and delivers a reported 300% improvement in shipping and inventory space. The design, crafted by Clearfield’s internal design team, enables the vaults to be shipped unassembled and flat packed, which enables shipping multiple vaults per pallet, saving up to 67% off freight, transportation, handling and storage costs. “We have been diligently working to improve our supply chain process so our community broadband customers have the products each need when needed, so they can meet the deadlines and requirements for expanding fiber broadband as part of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment Program and other federal funding programs,” says Clearfield’s chief marketing officer, Kevin Morgan.
