Heavy-Duty SWA Armoured Ethernet Cable
Our armoured Ethernet cables are built for environments where standard copper cabling is not sufficient. Steel Wire Armour (SWA) offers exceptional protection against impact, compression, rodents and general mechanical damage. We supply both external-grade PE armoured cables for outdoor installations and PVC-jacketed SWA for indoor industrial environments.
Available in Multiple Categories
- Cat5e SWA – ideal for CCTV, short building-to-building links and basic outdoor or industrial runs.
- Cat6 SWA – gigabit-rated armoured cable for long external routes or harsh indoor environments.
- Cat6a SWA – 10Gb 500MHz armoured Ethernet for heavy-duty commercial installations (coming soon).
Choose PE or PVC Jackets
- SWA + PE Jacket – external-grade, waterproof and UV-resistant. Suitable for outdoor runs, underground ducts, garden offices and exposed environments.
- SWA + PVC Jacket – designed for indoor industrial areas such as plant rooms, factories, containment systems and cable trays where UV exposure is minimal.
Typical Applications
- Buried or underground Ethernet runs (PE)
- Outdoor links between buildings (PE)
- Garden office and outbuilding connections (PE)
- Warehouses, machinery rooms and plant areas (PVC)
- Rodent-prone environments
- High-interference industrial areas
