Shielded Multiconductor Cable, 16 AWG

Product Description

Shielded multiconductor 16 AWG cables are used for a wide range of purposes. Oftentimes, you will find them in things like consumer electronics such as intercom systems and cash registers. They are also used in advanced signal transmissions in controlled environments. What does all that mean? It simply means that shielded multiconductor 16 AWG cables are utilized for controlling equipment. By using 16 AWG shielded multiconductor cable you have the option of selecting between 2 to 8 conductors.

What benefit is there from using shielded multiconductor cables? In most industrial facilities, there is a lot going on. What I mean is there are many pieces of equipment with a lot of wires in them, all running through a given facility. This can create EMI (electromagnetic interference) also named RFI (radio frequency interference). EMI/RFI has the potential to greatly reduce the performance of a circuit. In certain cases, it can even stop the circuit from functioning. This is why you would want to make sure to utilize shielded multiconductor 16 AWG cable. The shielding in this type of cable works in two ways. For starters, it has the ability to reflect a lot of energy. This serves to prevent the energy from interrupting the circuit. Next, the shielding can conduct much of that energy to the ground. Together, these actions ensure that the EMI/RFI does not reach the conductors. These cables are built to meet the requirements NEC. Temperatures and voltages are not always the exact same from cable to cable. Call a Pacer expert for specifications on multiconductor cable.
