Belden 8760 Multi-Conductor Cable 18/1P TC Shielded Twisted Pair, PE, Beldfoil, PVC

Belden 8760 is one of the most popular cables for industrial signal transmission applications. It is part of Belden's audio, control and instrumentation line of cables. And like all Belden products, 8760 is known for delivering reliable high performance, even in the most challenging conditions.

18 AWG stranded (16x30) tinned copper conductors are typically used in fixed services such as hook-up wire in cable raceways, or in situations where some moderate flexing may occur, when frequently disturbed for maintenance, for example.

Polyethylene insulation is rated excellent or outstanding in a wide array of environments.

Twisted pairs reduce crosstalk by balancing signal transmission. Because of this improvement in noise immunity, compared to traditional multi-conductor cables, twisted pair conductors often yield higher data transmission speeds.

Overall Beldfoil® shield provides 100% coverage using an aluminum and polyester construction that is thin and lightweight while offering strength and flexibility, as well as extra insulation. It is excellent at both radio and audio frequencies. It is not intended for applications that require the shield to have high tensile strength, and fatigue life is fair, although special techniques can extend its usability in high flex situations.

20 AWG stranded tinned copper drain wire allows for simple termination and grounding of the entire shield.

PVC Jacket - According to Belden's Capabilities Bulletin, the PVC jacketing is considered excellent for resistance to oxidation, ozone, and flame. It is also suitable for heat, weather, sun, acids and alkali exposure. Normal temperature range for a PVC jacket is -20 C to 80 C.
