The Alpha Wire Communication and Control Cable, part number M5391, features three conductors made of tinned copper with an 18 AWG size. The cable has a nominal PVC insulation wall thickness of 0.016 inches and a jacket thickness of 0.032 inches, providing durability and protection. It is designed with a minimum of 4.8 twists per foot for effective signal integrity and is shielded with aluminum/Mylar tape and tinned copper braid for enhanced electromagnetic interference (EMI) performance. This cable operates within a temperature range of -20¬8C to 80¬8C and has a voltage rating of 300 VRMS. It exhibits low capacitance of 52 pF/ft at 1 kHz, which is beneficial for maintaining signal quality over longer distances. The cable is compliant with various standards, including UL AWM/Style 2464 and RoHS directives, ensuring it meets safety and environmental regulations. Available in multiple lengths, M5391 is suitable for a variety of applications, including audio systems, data transmission, and control systems.
