3M 1700 Series Ribbon Cable, Twisted Type, 34 Ways - 1700-34

This ribbon cable is an efficient interconnect solution designed for versatile applications in automation and electronics. Featuring a length of 30.48m, it utilises stranded conductors configured in a multi-coloured arrangement for easy identification. The twisted design enhances signal integrity while minimising crosstalk.

Features & Benefits

• Unscreened design ensures flexibility in various applications
• Mass terminable for broad compatibility with IDC connectors
• High-temperature rating supports operation from -20°C to +105°C
• Stranded conductors provide enhanced durability and longevity
• Colour-coded wiring simplifies identification and installation
• Meets stringent flammability standards for added safety

Applications

• Used with automation systems for reliable signal transmission
• Ideal for connecting devices in electronics and electrical assemblies
• Suitable for internal wiring in machinery and equipment
• Effective in installations requiring reduced crosstalk in data lines

What is the significance of the twisted design in this cable?

The twisted design helps reduce electromagnetic interference, allowing for cleaner signal transmission, which is vital in high-frequency applications.

How does the flammability rating impact usage?

The flammability rating ensures that the cable can withstand fire hazards, making it suitable for applications in environments with a higher risk of fire.

What benefits do the stranded conductors provide?

Stranded conductors offer improved flexibility compared to solid wires, facilitating easier routing in tight spaces and making installations more manageable.

Approvals

UL 20462

Ribbon cables provide a simple, quick and cost-effective solution to mass termination. They also have space and weight saving advantages over other wiring methods and are ideal for use on computers, peripherals, and interface units, audio and digital equipment. Colour coded ribbon cable with alternate twisted pair and parallel conductor sections. Twisting of adjacent conductors reduces crosstalk whilst the flat sections at regular intervals still facilitate easy termination.
