ALPHA WIRE 18985CSL005 Unshielded Cable

The 1898/5C SL005 is a 5-conductor unshielded cable featuring 18 AWG tinned copper conductors and a slate PVC jacket. Designed for specialized applications, it offers low capacitance to ensure extended digital signal transmission. The cable provides additional flexibility due to its rubber insulation and jacket, making it suitable for electrically noisy environments. Key electrical characteristics include a conductor-to-conductor capacitance of 33 pF/ft at 1 kHz, a typical inductance of 0.18 µH/ft, and a DC resistance of 7.2 Ω/1000 ft at 20°C. This versatile cable is ideal for audio, communication and networking, computers and peripherals, sensing and instrumentation, security systems, and automation and process control.
