Introducing the RS PRO 8 core screened multicore cat8 cable. The cable features a multicore 7/(0.16±0.008) mm core strand construction making them perfect for applications that require multiple cores to be wired, whilst keeping them organised and safe. By using this RS PRO high-quality range of multicore cables, tripping hazards can be drastically reduced while improving the overall appearance of electrical equipment, especially in areas where there is little space, or the cable installation is visible to individuals. The strands are housed in a durable PVC sheath offering excellent protection and reliability, whilst maintaining high performance. RS PRO multicore screened industrial cables are made with high-quality stranded bare copper conductor with cores twisted together insulated with foam PE.

Screened multicore cables are electrical cables that have more cores than standard power or coaxial cables and are available in various lengths and cores, dependent on the applications they are being used for. They have an extra layer of protection above the insulation covered by a metallic screen and an outer cover that reduces the effects of electromagnetic interference. They are ideal for using when there is little space or for organising cable installations that require multiple cabling connections, especially within industrial or entertainment applications. Multicore cables are found in many different environments, for example:
Entertainment and audio industry
Machines and factory control equipment
Large control pads
DIN-Rail terminals
Conveyor belts
Data and networking
Security and safety
