RS PRO Multicore Data Cable, 0.22 mm², 4 Cores, 24 AWG, Screened, 500m, Black Sheath

Screened cable also known as shielded cable is an electrical cable of one or more insulated conductors enclosed by a common conductive layer. It is used to reduce the effect of electromagnetic interference (EMI) or electrical noise which can disrupt the transmission performance in some environments.

• Helps keep your signal inside and keep unwanted signals out
• Minimizes coupled noises from other electrical sources
• This RS Pro 4 core screened cable is highly conductive stranded PVC insulated tinned copper wire and comes in black colour of sheath
• Resistance per core is 92Ω/km
• Standards : DEF STAN 61.12 parts 4 and 5, IEC60332-1
• Defence Standard 61-12, Parts 4 and 5; NBN EN ISO 9001; OP-QAO-003; OP-QIO-504; KI-QIO-616

The best way to wire shielded cable for screening is to ground the shield at both ends of the cable. The rule of thumb can be applied to ground the shield at one end only to avoid ground loops.

• Suitable as interconnection between and within instruments and electrical equipment such as data transmission and process control
• Security systems – protection from power frequency and radio frequency interference, reducing the number of false alarms being generated
