Multipair Extension Cable
4-8-12-16-20-24
- KX / JX / TX
|
Common
extension wire types are made up into standard multipair cables.
Each conductor is covered with a polyvinyl jacket, nominal
0.015" (0.38 mm) thick, and the pairs are individually twisted.
Clear Mylar tape is then wrapped around the bundle of twisted
pairs. A solid tinned-copper drain wire is laid over the bundle,
which is covered with aluminum-backed Mylar tape to serve
as an electro static shield. The drain wire provides a simple
mechanical termination for the shield. The cable is then covered
with a jacket of polyvinyl approximately 0.045" (1.1 mm) thick.
As an added convenience, each standard cable contains an extra
polyvinyl-clad solid tinned-copper wire for use as a ground
connection, or to complete a communication or signal circuit.
Standard cables are color-coded. The individual pairs are
marked 1-1, 2-2, etc., for easy identification. Insulation
will withstand temperatures up to 221°F (105°C).

Overbraiding
Any standard item can be overbraided with tinned copper, stainless
steel or Inconel upon request.
Special Orders
Multipair extension cable can be made to order with insulation
to suit your installation requirements. Consult Sales Department
on pricing and quantity minimums.
Multipair Pricing
Multipairs can be purchased in any quantity (minimum length
