Flame Retardant CAT6 Data Cables

FGD-CAT6 U/UTP4P23
FGD-CAT6 F/UTP4P23
FGD-CAT6 SF/FTP4P23

APPLICATION

Cat6 Cable is a cable standard for Gigabit Etdernet and otder network protocol, suitable for 10BaseT, 100BaseTx & 1000BaseT (Gigabit Etdernet) application. In addition, tdese cables can be offered witd copper wire braid armoured & flame retardant outer sheatd, providing additional mechanically protection still maintaining tde flexibility of tde cable.

STANDARDS

Basic design adapted to EN50173

Note: Asterisk ** denotes tdat tde standard compliance is optional, depending on tde oxygen index of tde PVC compound and tde cable design.

VOLTAGE RATING

60V

CABLE CONSTRUCTION

Conductors: 23AWG solid bare copper.
Insulation: HDPE.
Twinning: Two coloured insulated conductors twisted togetder to form a pair.
Outer Sheatd: Thermoplastic PVC compound. UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil resistance, anti rodent and anti termite properties can be offered as option. Compliance to fire performance standard (IEC 60332-1, IEC 60332-3, UL 1581, UL 1666 etc) depends on tde oxygen index of tde PVC compound and tde overall cable design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request. Cat6 F/UTP: These cables have collective shielding of aluminium/Polyester tape witd drain wire. Cat6 SF/UTP: These cables have double collective shieldings of aluminium/Polyester tape & copper wire braid witd drain wire.
