Construcción

Conductores
Solid annealed bare copper, 0.4/0.5/0.63/0.9mm, as per ASTM B-3/class 1 of IEC 60228

Aislamiento
Solid polyethylene as per ASTM D 1248/IEC 60708

Pares trenzados
Insulated conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay length to minimize crosstalk

Elemento de cableado
Twisted Pairs

Cable Troncal Asamblea
Cables of 25 pairs or less are assembled into cylindrical core. Cables larger than 25 pairs are assembled into units, which are then used to form the core. Units are identified by colour coded binders

Envasado básico
One or more non-hygroscopic polyester tapes are helically or longitudinally laid with an overlap. These tapes furnish thermal, mechanical as well as high dielectric protection between shielding and individual conductors

Moisture Barrier
A layer of corrugated copolymer coated aluminium tape (0.2mm/8mil) is applied longitudinally with overlap over the cable core to provide 100% electrical shielding coverage and ensures a barrier against water vapor

Vaina
Black Low density or medium density polyethylene as per ASTM D 1248/IEC 60708, being able to withstand exposure to sunlight, temperature variations, ground chemicals and other environmental contaminants

Ripcord
Ripcord may be provided for slitting the sheath longitudinally to facilitate its removal

Pares de repuesto (optional)
Spare pairs may be provided for large pair cables

Continuidad Wire(optional)
One tinned copper drain wire may be longitudinally laid to ensure electrical continuity of the screen

Facultativo Construcción

Libre-Cables de apoyo
A 7-strand galvanized steel strand is used as support wire. Black polyethylene sheath covers both core and support wire in a figure-8 construction
