24 AWG 200 Pair Double Jacket Reinforced Self-Support BKMP Air Core Cable 20-108-20
About :
Reinforced Self-Support Cable is a solid insulated, double jacket, armored, self-supporting air core design intended for aerial installations where hazards from squirrel attack, tree limb abrasion or lightning exist. The undulated, shielded, jacketed core is covered with a flooded steel armor, laid parallel to a flooded steel support member and jacketed in an integral extrusion to form a “figure 8” configuration. The steel strand member is readily available for gripping, pulling and tensioning using standard methods and hardware.
Insulation: Solid polyolefin in distinctive colors to facilitate pair identification
>50-Pair Core: Multiples of 25-pair groups are assembled to form the final cable core; each group is identified by color coded non-hygroscopic binders
Core Wrap: Non-hygroscopic dielectric material
Shield: Corrugated, 8 mil aluminum tape is applied longitudinally over the core wrap
Armor: Corrugated bare 6 mil steel tape is applied longitudinally over the inner jacket and the inner and outer surfaces of the steel are flooded
Support Member: 0.25 inch, 7-strand Extra High-Strength (EHS) galvanized steel member, fully flooded, serves as the support member and is an integral part of the sheath
Also Known as :
200 Pair Cable, 24 AWG Outside Cable, 24 AWG Cable, Solid Polyolefin Cable, BKMP Cable, Reinforced Self-Support Cable, Cable with Messenger Support.
