Heavy Duty Continuous Flex Ethernet Cable

DataMax Extreme cable jackets are pressure extruded over the cable core, effectively "locking" the conductor pairs in place. This type of jacket construction provides very stable electrical performance, even when the cable is impacted, bent, or repeatedly flexed. Pressure extrusion also provides a very smooth, round, and firm jacket allowing the cable to be flexed up to 10 million cycles without failure.

Applications - Flexing versus Flexible

• Continuous Flexing Cables: Cables designed to be exposed to constant flexing during their operation & withstand millions of these flex cycles.
  
  
• Flexible Cables: Cables designed to be bent and routed in an installation then remain static. Think of this as "bendability". Note: Our current offering of Multi-Conductor Control Cable is Flexible not Flexing.
