Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to General Cable Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the preparation and filing by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) of a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to the contemplated issuance from time to time of up to 8,987,322 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), issuable upon conversion of the Company’s 0.875% Senior Convertible Notes due 2013 and related subsidiary guarantees (collectively, the “Notes”). This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.

     In rendering the opinion set forth herein, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of (i) the Registration Statement; (ii) the resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company; (iii) the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended through the date hereof; (iv) the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company; (v) the Indenture governing the Notes, dated as of November 15, 2006, by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, as amended or supplemented from time to time thereafter (the “Indenture”); and (vi) such other certificates, statutes and other instruments and documents as we considered appropriate for purposes of the opinion hereafter expressed.

     In rendering this opinion, we have assumed, without inquiry, (i) the due organization and valid existence of the Company; (ii) the due authorization, execution, authentication and delivery by all persons of the Registration Statement; (iii) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals; (iv) the conformity to the original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies; (v) the legal capacity of all natural persons and the genuineness of all signatures on the Registration Statement and all documents submitted to us; and (vi) that the books and records of the Company are maintained in accordance with proper corporate procedures.

     In making our examination of executed documents, we have assumed that the parties thereto had or will have the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and we have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and (except to the extent we have opined on such matters below) the validity and binding effect on such parties. In addition, we have assumed (i) the Registration Statement will have become effective and will comply and continue to comply with all applicable laws at the time any shares of Common Stock are issued as contemplated by the Registration Statement and no stop order suspending its effectiveness will have been issued and remain in effect; and (ii) that the Company will continue to be validly
