Description
Belden 8308 060 is a multi-pair computer EIA RS-232 cable designed for extended distance applications, computer communications, and low voltage analog or digital control signals. It is built with 8 twisted pairs of 22 AWG stranded (7x30) tinned copper conductors and semi-rigid PVC insulation. For noise rejection, it uses an overall Beldfoil® (100% coverage) plus a tinned copper braid shield (65% coverage). The cable is finished with a PVC jacket in Chrome for indoor installations.
Belden 8308 060 Key Features
- 8 twisted pairs support multi-pair signal and control wiring in a single cable.
- 22 AWG stranded (7x30) tinned copper conductors define the conductor construction.
- Semi-rigid PVC insulation is used on the conductors.
- Overall Beldfoil® (100% coverage) plus a tinned copper braid shield (65% coverage) is specified for noise rejection.
- A PVC jacket in Chrome is specified for indoor installations.
Belden 8308 060 Applications
- Use it for RS-232 extended distance applications where multi-pair signal transmission is needed over longer runs.
- Specify it for computer communications wiring in systems that use RS-232 style signaling.
- Support low voltage analog signals (4-20ma, 0-10v, ...) in control and instrumentation connections.
- Choose it for low voltage digital control (24v, …) where multiple control circuits are routed together.
- Run line level audio for signal-level audio interconnects.
- Include it for panel wiring in indoor control panels and equipment wiring layouts.
