Specification

22 AWG 6C Solid Bare Copper Unshielded Semi-Rigid PVC 300V Category3 Telephone Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 22 AWG 6C Solid Bare Copper Unshielded Semi-Rigid PVC 300V Category3 Telephone Cable: 100 Amps

About:

• This telephone cable is designed for basic voice communication and low-speed data transmission applications. It features two solid bare copper conductors, ensuring reliable signal transmission and durability. The cable is unshielded, which is common for telephone cables used in environments with minimal electromagnetic interference (EMI). Encased in a semi-rigid PVC jacket, the cable is robust yet flexible enough for easy installation in fixed setups. It is rated for 300V, making it suitable for low-voltage telephone and communication systems.
