SEALPIC ®

Product Description

• SEALPIC® cables are designed primarily for aerial use. In this application, the cable must be attached to a support strand (messenger). If the cable is to be placed in a duct, the cable must be pressurized. SEALPIC® cables, in 19, 22 and 24 AWG, are capable of meeting the electrical requirements of 100 ohms, Category 3, Backbone UTP cables as specified in TIA/EIA-568-A.

Physical Description:

• CONDUCTORS: Solid annealed copper in 19, 22, 24 and 26 AWG.

• INSULATION: Conductors are insulated with solid polyolefin, color coded in accordance with industry standards.

• TWISTED PAIRS: Individual conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay lengths to minimize crosstalk and specific color combi-nations to provide pair identification.

• CORE ASSEMBLY: Cables of 25 pairs or less are assembled into a cylindrical core. Cables larger than 25 pairs are assembled into units, which are then used to assemble the core. Units are individu-ally identifiable by color coded unit binders.

• CORE WRAP: A non-hygroscopic, dielectric tape is applied over the core assembly to provide protection for the core.

• SHIELDING: A corrugated, copolymer coated, 8-mil aluminum tape is applied longitudinally with an overlap.

• JACKET: A black, linear low-density polyethylene jacket is applied overall. The jacket provides a tough protective covering designed to withstand exposure to direct sunlight, atmospheric temperature changes and stresses expected in standard installations.

• JACKET MARKINGS: Information such as manufacturer’s identifica-tion, pair count AWG, product identification and a telephone hand-set is printed at 2 ft. intervals on the cable jacket. Sequential footage markings are printed at alternate 2 ft. intervals.

• OPTIONAL DESIGNS: SEALPIC® is available with an internal screen for use with carrier T1 systems. (See page 62)

SEALPIC ®-84

Product Description

• SEALPIC®-84 cables are designed for aerial installations. The core and support member (messenger) lay parallel to each other forming a cross-sectional “figure 8”. The messenger is an integral part of the cable sheath, yet readily available for gripping, pulling and tensioning. Installation is fast and easy using standard methods and hardware. SEALPIC®-84 cables, in 19, 22 and 24 AWG are capable of meeting the electrical require-ments of 100 ohms, Category 3, Backbone UTP Cables as specified in TIA/EIA-568-A.

Physical Description

• CONDUCTORS: Solid annealed copper in 19, 22, 24 and 26 AWG

• INSULATION: Conductors are insulated with solid polyolefin, color coded in accordance with industry standards.

• TWISTED PAIRS: Individual conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay lengths to minimize crosstalk and specific color combi-nations to provide pair identification.

• CORE ASSEMBLY: Cables of 25 pairs or less are assembled into a cylindrical core. Cables larger than 25 pairs are assembled into units, which are then used to assemble the core. Units are individu-ally identifiable by color coded unit binders.

• CORE WRAP: A non-hygroscopic, dielectric tape is applied over the core assembly to provide protection for the core.

• SHIELDING: A corrugated, copolymer coated, 8-mil aluminum tape is applied longitudinally with an overlap.

• SUPPORT MEMBER: A 1/4 inch, 7-strand Extra High Strength (EHS) galvanized steel messenger serves as the support member and is an integral part of the sheath. The messenger is flooded to inhibit corrosion.

• JACKET: A black, linear low-density polyethylene jacket is applied overall. The jacket provides a tough protective covering designed to withstand exposure to direct sunlight, atmospheric temperature changes and stresses expected in standard installations.

• JACKET MARKINGS: Information such as manufacturer’s identifica-tion, pair count AWG, product identification and a telephone hand-set is printed at 2 ft. intervals on the cable jacket. Sequential footage markings are printed at alternate 2 ft. intervals.

Product Description

• SEALPIC‚-FSF-84 cables are designed for aerial applications where a filled cable design is preferred. The core and support member (messenger) lay parallel to each other forming a cross-sectional “figure 8”. The messenger is an integral part of the cable sheath, yet readily available for gripping, pulling and tensioning. Installation is accomplished using standard methods and hardware. SEALPIC‚-FSF-84 cables in 22 and 24 AWG are capable of meeting the electrical requirements of 100 ohms, Category 3, Backbone UTP Cables as specified in TIA/EIA-568-A.

Physical Descriptoin CONDUCTORS: Solid annealed bare copper in 22 and 24 AWG.

INSULATION: Conductors are dual insulated with an inner layer of foamed, natural polyolefin covered by an outer layer of solid, colored polyolefin. The conductor insulation is color-coded in accordance with industry standards.

TWISTED PAIRS: Individual conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay lengths to minimize crosstalk and specific color combina-tions to provide pair identification.

CORE ASSEMBLY: Cables of 25 pairs and less are assembled into a cylindrical core. Cables larger than 25 pairs are assembled into units, which are then used to assemble the core. Units are individually identifiable by color-coded binders.

FILLING COMPOUND: The core assembly is filled with an 80∞ C ETPR compound, completely filling the interstices between the pairs and under the core wrap.

CORE WRAP: A non-hygroscopic, dielectric tape is applied over the core assembly to provide protection for the core.

SHIELDING: A corrugated, copolymer coated, 8-mil aluminum tape is applied longitudinally with an overlap. The shield interfaces are flooded with an adhesive compound to provide a moisture barrier and inhibit corrosion.

SUPPORT MEMBER: A ? inch, 7-strand Extra High Strength (EHS) gal-vanized steel messenger serves as the support member and is an integral part of the sheath. The messenger is flooded to inhibit corro-sion.

JACKET: A black, linear low-density polyethylene jacket is applied overall. The jacket provides a tough protective covering designed to withstand exposure to direct sunlight, atmospheric temperatur e changes and stresses expected in standard installations.

JACKET MARKINGS: Information including the manufacturer’s identi-fication, pair count, AWG and product code appears at 2-foot inter-vals. Sequential length markings appear at alternate 2-foot intervals.

CUPIC ®-FSF

Product Description

• CUPIC®-FSF cables are designed for direct burial or duct applications where protection from moisture is required. CUPIC®-FSF may be used aerially, but must be attached to a support strand (messenger). CUPIC®-FSF cables, in 19, 22 and 24 AWG, are capable of meeting the electrical requirements of 100 ohms, Category 3, Backbone UTP Cables as specified in TIA/EIA-568-A.

Physical Description

• CONDUCTORS: Solid annealed copper in 19, 22, and 24 AWG.

• INSULATION: Conductors are dual insulated with an inner layer of foamed, natural polyolefin covered by an outer layer of solid, colored polyolefin. The conductor insulation is color coded in accordance with industry standards.

• TWISTED PAIRS: Individual conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay lengths to minimize crosstalk and specific color combinations to provide pair identification.

• CORE ASSEMBLY: Cables of 25 pairs or less are assembled into a cylindrical core. Cables larger than 25 pairs are assembled into units, which are then used to assemble the core. Units are individu-ally identifiable by color coded unit binders.

• FILLING COMPOUND: The core assembly is filled with an 80° C ETPR compound, completely filling the interstices between the pairs and under the core wrap.

• CORE WRAP: A non-hygroscopic, dielectric tape is applied over the core assembly to provide protection for the core.

• SHIELDING: A corrugated 5-mil copper tape is applied longitudinally with an overlap. The shield interfaces are flooded with an adhesive compound to provide a moisture barrier and inhibit corrosion.

• JACKET: A black, linear low-density polyethylene jacket is applied overall. The jacket provides a tough protective covering designed to withstand exposure to direct sunlight, atmospheric temperature changes and stresses expected in standard installations.

• JACKET MARKINGS: Information, such as manufacturer's identifi -cation, pair count AWG, product identification and a telephone handset is printed at 2 ft. intervals on the cable jacket. Sequential footage markings are printed at alternate 2 ft. intervals.

• OPTIONAL DESIGNS: CUPIC®-FSF is available with an internal screen for use with T-Carrier systems.

• CUPIC®-FSF is available with mechanical protection.

CASPIC ®-FSF

Product Description

• CASPIC®-FSF cables are designed for direct burial or duct applications where protection from moisture is required. CASPIC®-FSF cables are recommended for use in high-risk areas where additional mechanical or rodent protection is required. CASPIC®-FSF may be used aerially, but must be attached to a support strand (messenger). CASPIC®-FSF cables, in 19, 22 and 24 AWG, are capable of meeting the electrical require-ments of 100 ohms, Category 3, Backbone UTP Cables as specified in TIA/EIA-568-A.

Physical Description

• CONDUCTORS: Solid annealed copper in 19, 22, 24 and 26 AWG.

• INSULATION: Conductors are dual insulated with an inner layer of foamed, natural polyolefin covered by an outer layer of solid, colored polyolefin. The conductor insulation is color coded in accordance with industry standard.

• TWISTED PAIRS: Individual conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay lengths to minimize crosstalk and specific color combi-nations to provide pair identification.

• CORE ASSEMBLY: Cables of 25 pairs or less are assembled into a cylindrical core. Cables larger than 25 pairs are assembled into units, which are then used to assemble the core. Units are individu-ally identifiable by color coded unit binders.

• FILLING COMPOUND: The core assembly is filled with an 80° C ETPR compound, completely filling the interstices between the pairs and under the core wrap.

• CORE WRAP: A non-hygroscopic, dielectric tape is applied over the core assembly to provide protection for the core.

• SHIELDING: The dual shielding system consists of two metal tapes.

Inner: A corrugated, copolymer coated, 8-mil aluminum tape is applied directly over the core wrap. The aluminum tape does not butt or overlap at any point along the length of the cable.

Outer: A corrugated, copolymer coated, 6-mil steel tape is applied directly over the aluminum and overlaps. The shield interfaces are flooded with an adhesive compound to provide a moisture barrier and inhibit corrosion.

• JACKET: A black, linear low-density polyethylene jacket is applied overall. The jacket provides a tough protective covering designed to withstand exposure to direct sunlight, atmospheric temperature changes and stresses expected in standard installations.

• JACKET MARKINGS: Information, such as manufacturer's identifi -cation, pair count, AWG, product identification and a telephone handset is printed at 2 ft. intervals on the cable jacket. Sequential footage markings are printed at alternate 2 ft. intervals.

• OPTIONAL DESIGNS: CASPIC®-FSF is available with an internal screen for use with T-Carrier systems.

• CASPIC®-FSF is available with mechanical protection.
