Description
This 18 AWG 3 pair conductor individually shielded CM (Communications Multipurpose) cable can be used for low voltage digital and analog signals. It is suitable for computer communication and panel wiring.
Applications:
- Recommended for audio, pulse, and radio frequency applications requiring superior circuit isolation
- Paired cables allow balanced signal transmission which result in lower crosstalk through common mode rejection
- Due to improved noise immunity of twisted pairs, they generally permit higher data speeds than multiconductors
Standards:
- NEC Type CM: 300 Volts
- AWM 2919: 30 Volts
Conductor:
Stranded tinned copper
Insulation:
Polyethylene (PE)
ICEA color code for CM cable: black/red, black/white, and black/green
Shield Drain:
Each pair individually shielded with aluminum/polyester shield
20 AWG stranded tinned copper drain wire (5.3 twist/ft)
Outer Jacket:
Gray, Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)
