Filled ALPETH Cable with foam skin insulation is a single jacket, filled
design intended for direct burial application. An ETPR compound
completely coats each insulated conductor and fills the air space
between conductors. The shielding and jacketing combined with the
filling and flooding compounds throughout the cable provide exceptional
durability and resistance to moisture.
Features
• Tightly controlled individual conductor dimensions
• Specially designed pair twist lays
• Core wrap
• Polyethylene jacket
Benefits
• Limits resistance unbalance
of paired conductors
• Minimizes crosstalk and meets
the capacitance unbalance
requirements
• Protects core and provides
improved mechanical and
electrical characteristics
• Provides a tough, flexible,
protective covering that
withstands exposure to sunlight,
atmospheric temperatures,
ground chemicals and stresses
expected in standard installation
Specifications
Conductor – Solid annealed copper
Insulation – Conductors are dual insulated with an inner layer of foamed, natural polyolefin covered by an outer layer of solid, colored polyolefin; conductor insulation is color coded in accordance with industry standard
25-Pair Core – Pairs are combined into a cylindrical core
≥ 50-Pair Core – Multiples of 25-pair groups are assembled to form the final cable core; each group is identified by color coded non-hygroscopic binders; for 1,200-pair and larger, the color code is a Mirror Image design
Filling Compound – Entire core assembly is filled with an 80°C ETPR compound,
filling the air space between the insulated conductors
Core Wrap – Dielectric tape applied over the core
Shield – Corrugated bare 8 mil aluminum tape is applied
longitudinally over the core wrap; inner and outer
surfaces of the aluminum shield are flooded
Jacket – Black, polyethylene
Jacket Marking – Manufacturer’s identification, pair count, AWG, product
identification, sequential footage and a telephone
handset printed at 2 foot intervals
