Common extension wire types are made up into standard multipair cables. Each conductor is covered with a polyvinyl jacket, nominal 0.015" (0.38 mm) thick, and the pairs are individually twisted. Clear Mylar tape is then wrapped around the bundle of twisted pairs. A solid tinned-copper drain wire is laid over the bundle, which is covered with aluminum-backed Mylar tape to serve as an electro static shield. The drain wire provides a simple mechanical termination for the shield. The cable is then covered with a jacket of polyvinyl approximately 0.045" (1.1 mm) thick.
As an added convenience, each standard cable contains an extra polyvinyl-clad solid tinned-copper wire for use as a ground connection, or to complete a communication or signal circuit. Standard cables are color-coded. The individual pairs are marked 1-1, 2-2, etc., for easy identification. Insulation will withstand temperatures up to 221°F (105°C).
Overbraiding Any standard item can be overbraided with tinned copper, stainless steel or Inconel upon request.
Special Orders Multipair extension cable can be made to order with insulation to suit your installation requirements. Consult Sales Department on pricing and quantity minimums.
Multipair Pricing Multipairs can be purchased in any quantity (minimum length 25 feet).
Minimum Bending Radius 4 pair cable: 6 times overall diameter. 8 pair cable: 10 times overall diameter. Over 8 pair cable: 14 times overall diameter.
