Description
This 2 AWG TelcoFlex® L3 telecom power cable is a high performance, limited-smoke, non-halogenated power cable designed for telecommunications and power distribution applications. It features 7-strand tin-coated copper conductors, an inner opaque Mylar tape separator, TelcoHyde® 5221 insulation, and an overall flame-retardant saturated cotton braid with a colored finisher. TelcoHyde® 5221 insulation is rated 105°C dry and 60°C wet, providing reduced smoke generation and enhanced fire performance.
Applications
TelcoFlex® L3 is designed for use in telecommunications central offices, CATV head ends, data centers, and cell tower power applications. List 3 cables’ thicker stranding and cotton braid make it stiffer and tougher than List 2 cables.
