These cables feature high attenuation of crosstalk and interference, thus giving excellent individual signal isolation, e.g. as required for computer to peripheral equipment connections. Pairs of 7//0.25mm (22 a.w.g.) stranded, tinned copper conductors are insulated with polypropylene, twisted together with a tinned copper drain wire and wrapped in aluminised polyester tape (except the 2 pair which has a common drain wire). The selected number of pairs is wrapped overall in polyester tape, with a PVC outer sheath. Each pair of conductors is colour coded to aid identification and the earth drain wire ensures good earth continuity.

These cables are not to be regarded as power cables or cables for the direct connection of equipment to mains power supplies.
