FC Robust Cable 6XV1 830-0JH10

The FC robust cable 6XV1 830-0JH10 with its PUR sheath complies with the specification EN 50170, cable type A, with solid copper cores (22 gauge). The inner structure of the cable (cores, filler, shielding) is identical to that of the standard cable.

The structure of the cable allows the use of the FastConnect (FC) stripping tool for fast stripping of the cable (see Section 4.2.3).

Properties

The characteristics of the PUR sheath material differ from those of the standard LAN cable as follows:

SImproved resistance to abrasion

SImproved resistance to oil and lubricants

SResistant to UV radiation

SThe sheath material is flame resistant

Uses

The FC robust cable with its PUR sheath is particularly suitable for use in areas where it is exposed to chemicals and mechanical strain. It is designed for fixed installation within buildings (in-house cabling).
