Belden 89841 002, Multi Conductor P.O.S. Cable 1 Pair 24 AWG SH FEP Red
Description
Belden 89841 002 is a 1 pair 24 AWG RS-485 and P.O.S. multi-conductor cable with 24 AWG (7x32) TC - Tinned Copper conductors and FEP - Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (Foam) insulation. It uses an overall shield of Beldfoil® plus a Tinned Copper braid(90%) shield and includes a 24 AWG (7x32) TC drainwire. The cable has a plenum-rated FEP - Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene outer jacket in Red and is listed CMP with a UL Voltage Rating of 300 V (CMP). Electrical characteristics include 120 Ohm nominal characteristic impedence and 12 pF/ft (39 pF/m) nominal capacitance Cond-to-Cond.
