Description
Belden 9538 060 is a multi conductor computer EIA RS-232 cable for computer communications, panel wiring, and low voltage analog and digital control signals. It is built with 8 x 24 AWG stranded (7x32) TC - Tinned Copper conductors and SR-PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride (Semi-Rigid) insulation. The cable includes an overall Beldfoil® shield (100% coverage) with a 24 AWG (7x32) TC drainwire, plus a PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride jacket in Chrome. Key ratings and compliance include Article 800, CMG, UL 1685 FT4 Loading, and UL Voltage Rating: 300 V (CMG), 300 V (UL AWM 2464).
Belden 9538 060 Key Features
- 8 x 24 AWG stranded (7x32) TC - Tinned Copper conductors for multi-conductor signal and control wiring.
- SR-PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride (Semi-Rigid) insulation for consistent performance in indoor installations.
- Overall Beldfoil® shield with 100% coverage and a 24 AWG (7x32) TC drainwire to help reduce noise in sensitive signal applications.
- PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride jacket in Chrome for a finished cable construction.
- Compliance and fire performance support: Article 800, CMG, and UL 1685 FT4 Loading.
- UL Voltage Rating: 300 V (CMG), 300 V (UL AWM 2464).
Belden 9538 060 Applications
- Use it for RS-232 applications where dependable computer communications are required.
- For indoor installations, it supports computer communications wiring.
- In control and signal circuits, it can be used for low voltage analog signals (4-20mA, 0-10V, ...).
- Where multiple conductors are needed, it is appropriate for low voltage digital control (24V, …) in control wiring.
- For line level audio signal connections, shielding is helpful for noise-sensitive signals.
- In control panels and similar wiring layouts, it is a practical choice for panel wiring.
