This cable has been specially designed by PIC for airborne Gigabit Ethernet Local Area Network applications. The twisted-pair construction (four separate pairs) effectively reduces inductive interference while 100% foil and 90% braided shielding serve to further protect against EMI. 

Data transmission aboard aircraft faces more severe environmental and EMI situations than conventional LAN systems in commercial buildings, hence special measures have been taken to preserve technical performance. Silver-plated copper conductors and shielding assure uniform conductivity with excellent solder-ability. An FEP jacket protects the cable against abrasion and environmental effects while maintaining flexibility for ease of installation. 

E50824 is Skydrol resistant, RoHS compliant and passes the FAA flammability requirements of FAR Part 23 and 25, Appendix F. Test results are available upon request. Note: This product is also available with a black FEP jacket under product number G50824.
