MaxCell is known for helping organizations get more out of their conduit space—but what if you could add new pathways without removing existing cables, trenching, or even shutting down service?

That’s exactly where MaxWrap comes in.

One of MaxCell’s most unique and underutilized offerings, MaxWrap is a spiral-wrapped fabric innerduct designed for installing around active cable—no need to pull it out, power it down, or even interrupt service.

What is MaxWrap?

MaxWrap is a spiral-applied fabric pathway that installs directly over existing cable inside a conduit. It’s ideal for scenarios where a conduit is partially occupied, but you still need to add cable or organize the existing setup.

Here’s what makes it different:

  • Wraps around live cables already in place—no disconnection required
  • No need to remove or re-terminate active services
  • Creates a protected pathway for new cable alongside existing infrastructure
  • Can be installed quickly and safely with minimal disruption

Think of it as retrofitting your conduit from the inside.

Why Use MaxWrap?

MaxWrap is a go-to solution for organizations that can’t afford downtime but still need to optimize space or make room for additional services. It’s especially useful in:

  • Live data centers where powering down equipment is costly or impossible
  • Government and military facilities with 24/7 operational requirements
  • Healthcare and financial environments where network uptime is critical
  • Dense urban areas where digging up roads just isn’t an option

Instead of replacing cable or overbuilding, MaxWrap lets you wrap, route, and reuse.

How It Works

  1. Assessment – Identify available conduit space and existing cable layout.
  2. Access – Open one or both ends of the conduit, depending on layout.
  3. Installation – Feed MaxWrap into the conduit and apply it around the existing cable using a proprietary spiral method.
  4. Deployment – Once installed, the wrapped fabric forms a new, low-friction pathway for new cable—clean, safe, and protected.

It’s fast, clean, and completely non-invasive.

A Cost-Saving Alternative to Construction

Trenching, boring, and conduit replacement can cost tens of thousands of dollars per mile, not to mention delays, permitting, and restoration costs. MaxWrap delivers a fraction of the cost with zero disruption, making it one of the smartest alternatives in the field.

And just like other MaxCell products, MaxWrap is available in multiple sizes and can be customized to meet your application’s needs.

Final Thoughts

MaxWrap is the quiet workhorse in the MaxCell family—an elegant solution for real-world constraints. If you’re facing a full conduit, critical uptime requirements, or budget limitations, MaxWrap might just be your secret weapon.
