Belden 8790 060, Multi Conductor Cable 1 Pair 18 AWG Shield PVC

Description
Belden 8790 060 is a 1 pair 18 AWG line level audio cable for low voltage analog signals and control. It uses stranded (7x26) TC - Tinned Copper conductors with PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride insulation and a twisted-pair construction. An overall Spiral Serve / Screen shield with 85% coverage and Tinned Copper (TC) helps reduce noise, while the PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride jacket provides indoor protection. It is rated 300 V (CMG) with a 60°C UL temperature rating.
