Flame Retardant RG59 B/U Coaxial cables
APPLICATION
The cables are designed for CCTV, security, smoke detection and evacuation monitoring applications, where continued functionality is required during a fire situation. Due to the zero halogen low smoke construction, this cable is ideal for use in public, commercial and industrial environments.
STANDARDS
- Basic design adapted to MIL-C-17

Note: Asterisk ** denotes that the standard compliance is optional, depending on the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the cable design.
CABLE CONSTRUCTION
| Conductors |
Copper clad steel or bare copper, solid according to IEC 60228 class 1 |
| Insulation |
PE compound |
| Overall Screen |
Plain copper wire braid |
| Outer Sheath |
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 the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the overall cable design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request |
