Flame Retardant Data Cables

Applicationg

Cat6 Cable is a cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocol, suitable for 10BaseT,
100BaseTx & 1000BaseT (Gigabit Ethernet) application. In addition, these cables are with copper
wire braid armoured & flame retardant mud resistant outer sheath, providing additional mechanically
protection still maintaining the flexibility of the cable.

Cable Construction

Conductors: 23AWG solid bare copper.
Insulation: PE.
Twinning: Two coloured insulated conductors twisted together to form a pair.
Outer Sheath: Thermoplastic LSZH compound type LTS3 as per BS 7655-6.1 (Thermosetting LSZH
compound type SW2-SW4 as per BS 7655:section 2.6 can be offered.)
Outer Sheath Option: UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil resistance, anti-rodent and anti-termite properties can be offered as option.
Cat6 F/UTP: These cables have collective shielding of aluminium/Polyester tape with drain wire.
Cat6 SF/UTP: These cables have double collective shieldings of aluminium/Polyester tape & copper
wire braid with drain wire.
