Insulated conductors are twisted into pairs varying lays (twist lengths) to minimize crosstalk and meet strict capacitance unbalance limits. Cables containing over 25 pairs are cable and assembled in sub-units, each identified by color coded unit binders
Shielding:
0.008 inch thick corrugated aluminum tape shield with a corrosion resistant blue tinted ethylene copolymer coationg on both sides. This shield is applied longitudinally with overlap to provide 100% electrical shielding coverage and flood with a flooding compound
Jacket:
Black polyethylene. It is compounded to withstand sunlight temperature variations and other environmental conditions, including abuse during installation.
Footage Marking:
Footage marking are printed sequentially every two feet along the outer jacket
Filling:
The entire cable within the outer jacket is flooded with a petrolalum polyethylene gel filling compound to eliminate possible moisture content migration or ingress, thus providing improved electrical characteristic stability
Application:
Designed for use as a duct or direct burial cable in either exchange area service or truck service.
