The E51426 is a CAT 5E 10/100 BASE-T quadraxial cable designed for airborne applications per ARINC Specification 664, featuring 26 AWG silver-plated high-strength copper alloy conductors, dual shielding with 90% inner and 85% outer braid coverage, fluoropolymer insulation, and an ETFE laser-markable jacket. It has an overall diameter of 0.137 inches (3.48 mm), a minimum bend radius of 0.7 inches (17.78 mm), and weighs 1.8 lbs per 100 ft (2.7 kg per 100 m). The cable operates from -55°C to +150°C, supports 100 ohms impedance, 70% velocity of propagation, and a dielectric voltage rating of 1.5 kV RMS. It meets RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC, SAE AS4373E Skydrol resistance, and FAR Part 25.869 flame and smoke requirements. Termination is compatible with ARINC 600 and D38999 quadrax contacts and Tensolite NF26Q100 contacts.
The E51426 is a 100 Base-T Quadrax cable specially designed for airborne applications as defined by ARINC Specification 664. The overall design of E51426 allows a smaller overall diameter and weight while exceeding Category 5e requirements. The E51426’s construction of high-strength copper alloy conductors is surrounded by fluoropolymer insulation assuring uniform conductivity with excellent solderability. E51426 is designed to be terminated with ARINC 600 and D38999 quadrax contacts and is compatible with any contact designed for Tensolite cable part number NF26Q100. The 90% inner braid and 85% outer braided shielding provide double shielding to preserve technical performance. An ETFE laser markable jacket protects the cable against abrasion and environmental effects while maintaining flexibility for ease of installation.
