Application

The cables are designed for use as subscriber distribution cables and as connection between central offices. The

recommended installation is in ducts

Standards

RUS (REA) PE-39 (RUS 7 CFR 1755.390)

ICEA S-84-608

Construction

Conductors

Solid annealed bare copper, 0.4/0.5/0.63/0.9mm, as per ASTM B-3/class 1 of IEC 60228

Insulation

Solid medium or high density polyethylene as per ASTM D 1248/IEC 60708

Twisted Pairs

Insulated conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay length to minimize crosstalk

CablingElement

Twisted Pairs

Cable Core Assembly

Cables of 25 pairs or less are assembled into cylindrical core. Cables larger than 25 pairs are assembled into

units, which are then used to form the core. Units are identified by colour coded binders

Core Wrapping

One or more non-hygroscopic polyester tapes are helically or longitudinally laid with an overlap. These tapes

furnish thermal, mechanical as well as high dielectric protection between shielding and individual conductors

Moisture Barrier

A layer of corrugated PE copolymer coated aluminium tape (0.2mm/8mil) is applied longitudinally with overlap

over the cable core to provide 100% electrical shielding coverage and ensure a barrier against water vapor

Sheath

Black low or medium density polyethylene as per ASTM D 1248/IEC 60708, being able to withstand exposure to

sunlight, temperature variations, ground chemicals and other environmental contaminants

Ripcord

Ripcord may be provided for slitting the sheath longitudinally to facilitate its removal

SparePairs (optional)

Spare pairs may be provided for large pair cables

Continuity Wire (optional)

One tinned copper drain wire may be longitudinally laid to ensure electrical continuity of the screen
