Description
Belden 8125 060 is a low capacitance computer EIA RS-232/422 cable built with 25 twisted pairs of 24 AWG stranded (7x32) tinned copper conductors. It features Datalene® insulation and a dual-shield design with overall Beldfoil® (100% coverage) plus a tinned copper braid shield (65% coverage), along with a 24 AWG stranded (7x32) tinned copper drain wire to help reduce noise. The PVC jacket in Chrome is intended for indoor installations where shielded multi-pair performance is needed.
Belden 8125 060 Key Features
- 25 twisted pairs of 24 AWG stranded (7x32) tinned copper conductors for data and control signal transmission.
