What is the conductor configuration inside the cable?
It contains four individually insulated cores, each with multi‑strand tinned copper conductors and a tinned copper drain wire integrated into the overall screen.
How is the cable screen constructed and what coverage does it provide?
The screen comprises a combination foil and tinned copper braid with a minimum of 70% braid coverage to provide effective screening against external interference.
What materials make up the outer sheath and what are its handling properties?
The outer sheath is a polyvinyl chloride formulation offering flexibility and sunlight resistance, with an added ripcord for easier jacket removal during installation.
How should installers manage mechanical strain during routing?
Adhere to a minimum bend radius of 10x cable diameter and limit pull tension to the specified maximum to avoid conductor or jacket damage.
What markings and approvals appear on the cable for regulatory identification?
The jacket is printed with manufacturer identification and applicable AWM/CSA/CE markings reflecting recognised safety and performance standards.
