NEK606 Offshore Marine Cable
Cat5E UTP/FTP Armoured Data Cable

Applications

• Cat5E UTP/FTP Armoured Marine Data Cable is a cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocol, suitable for basic voice and data installations up to 100 MHz. In addition, these cables are with copper wire braid armoured & flame retardant mud resistant outer sheath, providing additional mechanically protection still maintaining the flexibility of the cable.

Standards

• IEC 60332-3-22	IEC 60754-1,2
  IEC 61034-1,2	NEK 606:2004

Construction

• Conductors : 24AWG solid bare copper.
• Insulation : HDPE.
• Twinning : Two coloured insulated conductors twisted together to form a pair.
• Bedding : Flame retardant, low smoke and halogen-free polyolefin, coloured black.
• Armour : 0.2/0.3mm copper wire braid.
• Outer Sheath : Low smoke and halogen-free polyolefin.

Optional :

• Cat5E F/UTP : These cables have collective shielding of aluminium/Polyester tape with drain wire.
• Cat5E SF/UTP :These cables have double collective shieldings of aluminium/Polyester tape & copper wire braid with drain wire
