Belden 3079A 0071000, 22-1P Solid BC Shielded PVC Jacket 300V

Description
Belden 3079A 0071000 is a Profibus Cable designed for data transmission in harsh environments, including outdoor installations exposed to temperature extremes, humidity/moisture, dust, and oil. It features 1 pair of 22 AWG solid BC - Bare Copper conductors with PE - Polyethylene (Foam) insulation and an overall shield system combining Bi-Laminate (Alum+Poly), 100% tape with a 65% Tinned Copper (TC) braid. Electrical performance includes 150 Ohm characteristic impedance, 78% nominal velocity of propagation, and a UL Voltage Rating of 300 V (CMG, PLTC), 600 V (AWM 20201). A PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride outer jacket supports Indoor, Outdoor, and Sunlight Resistance installations.
