The E51428 is a Category 5e quadraxial Ethernet cable for airborne applications per ARINC Specification 664, featuring 28 AWG silver-plated high-strength copper alloy conductors, solid PFA dielectric, and a PTFE laser-markable jacket. It has an outer diameter of 0.115 inches (2.92 mm), a minimum bend radius of 0.6 inches (15.24 mm), and weighs 1.0 lb per 100 ft (1.5 kg per 100 m). It supports 100 ohms impedance, 70% velocity of propagation, and operates from -55 to +200°C with a dielectric voltage rating of 1.5 kV RMS. Shielding is 80% silver-plated copper braid. It meets RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC, FAR Part 25.869 (a) App. F, and SAE AS4373E Skydrol resistance requirements, and complies with DFARS 252.225-7014, Alt 1. Maximum transmission distance is 170 ft (52 m).
The E51428 is a 100 Base-T Quadrax cable specially designed for airborne applications as defined by ARINC Specification 664. The overall design of E51428 allows a smaller overall diameter and weight while exceeding Category 5e requirements. The E51428’s construction of silver-plated high-strength copper alloy conductors is surrounded by a solid PFA insulation assuring uniform conductivity with excellent solderability. The 80% braided shielding provides shielding to preserve technical performance. A PTFE laser-markable jacket protects the cable against abrasion and environmental effects while maintaining flexibility for ease of installation.
