Electrically radiated noise frequently present in factory floor environments can interfere with device-to-device communication circuits, causing delayed signals or data loss. One important factor in establishing a good, reliable communication circuit is data cable selection.

AutomationDirect offers high quality, low-capacitance data cables designed with impedances specific for RS-232/RS-422 and RS-485 communication applications in industrial environments.

Features

• The 24 AWG tinned copper conductors are twisted pairs to reduce electrical noise sensitivity.
• These multi-conductor cables are available in one, two, or three twisted pair conductor color coded constructions.
• The polyethylene conductor insulation provides a very high insulation resistance with a low, stable dielectric constant resulting in lower capacitance and excellent velocity of propagation for superior signal transmission.
• To protect from radiated or conducted electromagnetic interference (EMI), our industrial data cables have combination shields consisting of an overall foil shield layer with drain wire and a woven braid shield layer.
• The overall foil shield has 100% cable coverage for excellent protection against higher frequency noise. A drain wire is provided to easily terminate and ground the foil shield. A second shield layer consists of a woven braid that is ideal for minimizing low frequency interference while providing superior structural integrity to the overall cable.
• Our combination foil/braid shielded data communication cables offer maximum shield effectiveness across the frequency spectrum compared to other single layer shielded cables. The rugged gray PVC jacket is durable enough for use in demanding industrial applications.
