PE Insulated & PE Sheathed Non Metallic Reinforced Drop Wires to RUS (REA) PE-7

Applications

The drop wires are one or two pair aerial service wires designed for use in extending telephone service to subscriber premises from the cable terminal.

Standards

  • RUS (REA) PE-7

Construction

Telephone Cable -  RUS PE-7 REA PE-7 - Indoor Telephone Cables
Conductors Solid annealed bare copper 0.5/0.8mm as per ASTM B-3/IEC 60228 Class 1.
Insulation Solid polyethylene as per ASTM D 1248/IEC 60708.
Cable Core Assembly & Core Wrapping Individual conductors are twisted into pairs and wrapped with PETP tape.
Strength Member Aramid yarn as non-metallic strength member is placed inside the sheath to provide longitudinal strength.
Sheath PE is extruded over the core to provide protection against mechanical damage, degradation by sunlight and water ingress.
Ripcord A ripcord made of polyamide is placed parallel to the core to facilitate sheath removal.
