Manchester, New Hampshire, USA, April 2nd, 2018 - Hitachi Cable America Inc. (HCA), a leader in the manufacture of high performance copper and fiber optic communication cables, strives to be at the cutting edge of technology and continues to do so through the development and release of its Drybit™ Category 6 indoor/outdoor plenum-rated cables. Drybit cables offer a design that is appropriate for both wet places and plenum spaces. The unique dry core cable design allows the owner to safely bridge two distinct cable environments using one single cable.
