Flame Retardant RG59 Coaxial cables
APPLICATION
The Flame Retardant RG59 Coaxial 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.
