Flame Retardant RG59 Coaxial cables

Flame Retardant Coaxial Cables

APPLICATION

The Flame Retardant RG59 Coaxial cables are designed for CCTV, security, smoke detection and evacuation monitoring applications, where continued functionality is required during a fire situation. Due to the zero halogen low smoke construction, this cable is ideal for use in public, commercial and industrial environments.

STANDARDS

Basic design to MIL-C-17
