The cable, part of the Motionline range, will meet the need for increased data volume in industrial settings. The CAT 6A cable can bend to a radius ten times its diameter while withstanding at least three million cycles, a new benchmark for CAT 6A industrial Ethernet.
Nexans’ CAT 6 cable carries signal frequencies of up to 500MHz while reducing crosstalk and system noise. Its outer PUR jacket is halogen free, protecting people and equipment in the event of a fire. It is also abrasion and oil resistant.
The Industrial Ethernet cable can be used for Industry 4.0, machine-to-machine intercommunication and Internet of Things applications. The high data rates, ability to withstand strenuous repetitive movement and small bending radius make the cable suitable for applications requiring a high volume of data transfer in drag chain applications.
The cable has been tested at the dedicated Nexans’ Motion Application Centre in Nuremberg, Germany. It meets all relevant international standards.
