Excel Dual Cat6 FTP Shielded LSZH

Excel Dual Category 6 F/UTP - foil screened - cables are manufactured and tested to the TIA/EIA 568-B.2-1, EN50173-1 and ISO/IEC 11801 Category 6 specifications. Each cable "leg" consists of 8 colour coded 23AWG polyethylene insulated conductors. These are twisted together to form 4 pairs with varying lay lengths. These pairs are then formed around a central "X" shaped polyethylene filler. This filler assists in maintaining and enhancing the cables performance. A clear Mylar tape is then wrapped around this unit and a foil tape screen with 24AWG drain wire applied. The foil screen provides protection from emissions (E.M.I.) which can occur when data is transmitted at high frequencies. A low smoke zero halogen outer sheath is then applied.

Two of these 4 pair units are then extruded together to form a dual "figure of 8" finished cable. A small web of LSOH compound joins the two 4 pair units together and provides a quick and easy method of separating the cables for termination.
