...

Construction:

  1. Conductor:24AWG, stranded, tinned copper per ASTM B33 and B174
  2. Insulation:High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
  3. Pairs:Color coded singles twisted into pairs
  4. Color Code:1PR - White/Green, Green; 2PR - White/Orange, Orange
  5. Assembly:Twisted pairs cabled together with filler and wrapped with clear polyester tape to form a round cable
  6. Shielding:An overall shield of 38 AWG tinned copper braid (75% coverage) is applied over the cable core and under a second aluminized polyester foil shield (100% coverage).
  7. Jacket:Teal, Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE)

Applications and Features:

Shielded Ethernet Cat 5e cable designed for the harsh industrial environment and provides excellent protection against EMI interference. It is suitable for continuous flexing cable track and torsion applications. For use for wiring network interconnections. Industrial strength jacket provides excellent resistance to low temperatures (-40°C), common oils and chemicals, flame, UV and weather exposure.
