The E20424 is a 2-pair, 10/100 Base-T CAT5e Ethernet cable designed for airborne applications per ARINC Specification 664. It features 24 AWG silver-plated copper conductors with dual-layer FEP dielectric, 100% aluminum/polyester foil and 90% silver-plated copper braid shielding, and a translucent blue FEP jacket. The cable has an outer diameter of 0.265 inches (6.73 mm), a minimum bend radius of 1.3 inches (33.02 mm), and weighs 4.18 lbs per 100 ft (6.2 kg per 100 m). It operates from -55 to +200°C, supports a velocity of propagation of 76%, and has a maximum transmission distance of 296 ft (90 m). It complies with RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC, SAE AS4373E Skydrol resistance, FAR Part 25.869 flame and smoke requirements, and DFARS 252.225-7014 Alt 1.
The E20424 is a 2 pair, 10/100 Base-T CAT5e cable specially designed for airborne applications as defined by ARINC Specification 664. The overall design of E20424 allows a smaller overall diameter and weight while retaining performance and required operating parameters. The E20424’s twisted-pair construction (two separate pairs) of silver-plated copper conductors is surrounded by dual-layer foamed/solid fluoropolymer dielectric that assures uniform conductivity with excellent solderability. Removal of the outer foamed layer reveals the inner solid insulation of a diameter compatible with conventional RJ45 connector terminations. The 100% foil (for each pair, as well as the entire cable) and 90% braided shielding assure uniform conductivity with excellent solderability, further protecting against EMI*. An FEP jacket protects the cable against abrasion and environmental effects while maintaining flexibility for ease of installation.
*The individual pair foil shields are also isolated from the overall foil shield for additional protection.
