Cable Construction

Conductor: Tinned, annealed copper per ASTM B33 class B.
Insulation: Flame-retardant Ethylene Propylene Rubber (FR-EPR) Type II.
Color-coded: per ICEA Method 1; Triads - black, white and red. One conductor in each triad is printed alpha-numerically for easy identification.
Shield: Individual triads are 100% shielded with aluminum/polyester in contact with stranded tinned copper drain wire. Overall shield is aluminum/polyester in contact with stranded tinned copper drain wire.
Jacket: Flame-retardant thermoplastic Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE).
