Description
Belden 8103 060 is a multi-pair computer communications cable designed for EIA RS-232/422 signal transmission and other low-voltage control and analog applications. It is built with 3 twisted pairs of 24 AWG stranded (7x32) TC - Tinned Copper conductors and a PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride jacket in Chrome. For noise immunity, it uses an overall Beldfoil® (100% coverage) plus a Tinned Copper braid shield (65% coverage) with a 24 AWG (7x32) TC drainwire. It is intended for indoor (not riser or plenum) installations.
