Cellular PE Insulated & PE Sheathed Jelly Filled Cables to CW 1236

Applications

The cables are fully filled with petroleum jelly, being designed for use in access or trunk networks, from telephone exchange to subscriber area. The cables are suitable for installation in ducts and direct burial in the ground.

Standards

CW 1236

Construction

Telephone Cable -  CW 1236 CW1236 - Telephone Cables
Conductors Solid annealed bare copper 0.32/0.4/0.5/0.63/0.9mm as per class 1 of BS 6360/IEC 60228.
Insulation Cellular polyethylene as per BS 6234/BS EN 50290-2-23/IEC 60708.
Twisted Pairs Insulated conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay length to minimize crosstalk.
Cabling Element Twisted Pairs.
Cable Core Assembly Cables with up to 100 pairs are composed of 25-pair units or 12/13-pair units; cables with over 100 pairs are composed of 25, 50 or 100-pair units cabled together. Any extra pairs form a separate unit. Units are identified by colour coded binders. Standard construction is per CW 1236 given in Cable Make Up Diagram.
Core Wrapping One or more non-hygroscopic polyester tapes are helically or longitudinally laid with an overlap. These tapes furnish thermal, mechanical as well as high dielectric protection between shielding and individual conductors.
Moisture Barrier An optional aluminium tape (0.15mm) coated with PE-copolymer on one or both sides is applied longitudinally with overlap over the cable core to provide 100% electrical shielding coverage and ensures a barrier against water vapor.
Filling The cable core interstices are filled with petroleum jelly to avoid longitudinal water penetration within the cable.The water resistant filling compound is applied to the air space between non-hygroscopic tape and shield, shield and sheath within the cable core.
Sheath Black low density polyethylene as per BS 6234/IEC 60708, being able to withstand exposure to sunlight, temperature variations, ground chemicals and other environmental contaminants.
Ripcord Ripcord may be provided for slitting the sheath longitudinally to facilitate its removal.
Spare Pairs (optional) Spare pairs may be incorporated for 200 and larger pair cables.
Continuity Wire (optional) One tinned copper drain wire may be longitudinally laid to ensure electrical continuity of the screen.

Optional Construction

Armoured Cable: Steel wire armour or corrugated steel tape armour is applied over an optional inner olyethylene sheath. For steel tape version, the 0.15mm thick steel tape is coated with a copolymer and applied with an overlap. An outer polyethylene sheath is applied over the armour.
