Telephone Cable

STANDARD:BT CW1128/1198

CAPACITY:50000 coils/week

The steel tape armor provides increased mechanical protection and gopher resistance

Conductors:Solid annealed copper

Insulation:Dual insulation consisting of an inner layer of foamed polyolefin surrounded by a solid polyolefin skin, color-coded in accordance with telephone industry standards

Twisted Pairs:Insulated conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay lengths to minimize crosstalk Core Assembly:

25 pairs and less; pairs are assembled together in a single group

More than 25 pairs: pairs are arranged in groups, each group having a color coded unit binder

1200 pairs and larger are mirror image color code.

Filling Compound: The entire core assembly is completely filled with ETPR compound , filling the interstices between the pairs and under the core tape Core Wrap: Dielectric tape applied longitudinally with an overlap Shield: Corrugated, copolymer-coated, 0.008'' Al tape applied longitudinally with an overlap

Jacket: Black, linear low density polyethylene



Tinde foam skin insulated filled telephone cables are intended for duct and direct buried installations where protection against water and moisture entry is required and may also be installed aerially.
